Steps
- Peel potatoes if they are "main crop", but leave the skins on new potatoes. Slice about 5 mm (¼-inch) thick. Or, slice roughly in different thickness so that the thin make a mush when cooked, while the others stay whole.
- Heat fat in a large heavy-base pot (one with a tight-fitting lid) and add the onions. Cook until lightly brown. Add the potatoes and stir well, coating all sides with the fat.
- Put the lid on and cook over a very low heat, shaking the pot once or twice to prevent sticking, until the potatoes are cooked.
- Add the meat, mix through, and turn up the heat to brown a little.
- Serve with brown sauce, parsley, and optional seasonings.
