3 medium Potatoes
1 large Onion
2 Tbs. Bacon Fat (the drippings from Sunday's breakfast)
1/2 cup Cheddar Cheese, grated
Salt and Black Pepper to taste
Sour cream for garnish
Recipe
Wash and peel the potatoes and cut into paper-thin slices. (Take your time preparing the potatoes, because you want them to be very thinly sliced for even cooking.) Pat the potatoes dry with a paper towel.
Cut the onion into paper-thin slices.
Heat half the bacon fat in a large heavy skillet and fill the pan with alternating layers of potatoes, onions, and cheese, making sure to finish the top with a layer of potatoes. Sprinkle each layer with salt and pepper as you go. Dot the final layer with the remaining bacon fat.
Cook over moderate heat until potatoes are almost tender. Turn the Haggerty carefully onto a plate, and then carefully slide it back into the pan and continue cooking until the potatoes are cooked through.
To serve, cut into wedges and serve with a dollop of sour cream. Devour while warm! (Serves 4)
