Ron;
Those homefries were great although not helping my cholesterol.I can't use the exact phrase my wife used to describe them but let me put it this way she loved them also. How can anything containing my 3 favorite ingrediants not taste good. Here's a reciepe containing the same 3 ingrediants plus some flour cooked a little differently. Its a Polish dish I learned from my mother and great aunt. Its sort of like a dumpling

Potatoe Kluskies;

5-6 large raw potatoes, 1 onion chopped, flour.1/2-1 lb bacon
2 qts boiling salted water (about 1 teaspoon of salt)

dice bacon into 1”pieces and fry, set aside, then in the bacon fat brown onions and add to boiling water.
Mean while, while cooking bacon and onions, In a large bowl, grate potatoes using smallest holes on grater. Sprinkle a dash or two of salt on top after each potatoe. It helps them from turning grey and adds flavor, if they do turn don’t worry,
Next stir flour into the potatoes, 2-3cups depending on the water content of the potatoes. When finished it should have the consistancy of peanut butter and should stick to a spoon when turned upside down. Plop by tablespoons into boiling water containing salt, and fried onions,( wetting spoon in cold water helps them slide off). Simmer uncovered till water thickens to a gravy.( It will thicken more as it cools) Occasionaly stir and scrape bottom of pot to avoid sticking and burning. Stir in bacon pieces the last 10 min. and serve.

I love this with a side of bread,butter and grape jelly. It is a dinner but I can eat it anytime.
