Fried potatoes with onions... Many gourmets consider this combination ideal.
The potato flavor is perfectly complemented by a subtle onion sweetness.
However, the expert of the online publication Belnovosti in the field of cooking, chef, fourth-class baker Yulia Arkhipova does not recommend frying the above-mentioned vegetables together.
After all, this cooking option will not allow you to get the perfect side dish.
Why Potatoes and Onions Can't Be Fried in the Same Pan
The point is that a large amount of onion juice is released.
Because of this liquid, the potatoes begin to stew rather than fry.
As a result, the resulting dish will most likely be completely different from what the cook plans to make.
The potatoes will be too soft. There will be no nice crust. No pleasant "crunch" either.
What to do if you like potatoes with onions
If a gourmet does not want to give up the onion component, then the vegetables just need to be fried in different pans.
Potatoes and onions can be mixed only after they have been cooked.
In addition, there are many people who like soft potatoes with onions. Such gourmets can safely cook the dish in one frying pan. The main thing is to understand that the potatoes will be stewed, not fried.
