Ingredients
    1 large onion, chopped
    1/4 cup bacon drippings
    4 cups cubed raw potatoes (about 6 medium)
    1 cup milk
    3/4 - 1 cup cream
    1 1/2 teaspoons salt
    1/8 teaspoon pepper
    2 tablespoons chopped parsley
    crumbled bacon, if desired
Preparation
    Saute onion in 2 tbs bacon fat until soft and a medium frying pan.
    Remove from pan and set aside.
    Add remaining bacon fat and potatoes.
    Fry until golden brown on the outside.
    Stir in the onions.
    Add milk and cook a couple of minutes. Look to see how much of the liquid is absorbed before adding the cream as you want enough to slightly cover the potatoes and enough to cook them.
    Sprinkle with salt and pepper.
    Stir until blended.
    Cover pan.
    Cook very slowly, low heat until potatoes are soft, about 15 minutes This will depend on how large your potato cubes are.
    Pour into serving dish and sprinkle with parsley.
