Italian Cream Stuffed Cannoncini

INSTRUCTIONS 

  • Peel and dice potatoes into 1″ cubes.
  • Finely dice the onion.
  • Using a 10-inch skillet, add enough oil to cover the bottom. Heat oil over medium heat.
  • Drop-in potatoes, drop-in onions—season with salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Stir. Cover and cook for about 10 minutes without stirring.
  • Uncover. Stir and flip potatoes. Continue to cook uncovered for about 10-15 more minutes or until you reach desired tenderness, and the potatoes are browned.

NOTES

Tip** Do not over stir the potatoes. Stir potatoes and then leave alone for about 4-5 minutes. Stir again. This allows the potatoes time to fry and brown in the oil.
