Lunch at a sports bar in the casino on the Rez with dad. The breaded fried buffalo cauliflower was too salty. Also got fries that weren't that good. Dad loved his huge sloppy burger though!

For dinner mom's roommate is making me a vegetarian burrito.

This O'Brien potatoes sounds similar to what I grew up on.. and I thought it was a Polish type of potato, or a kind of Depression thing.
I love it..
I peel and slice potatoes into around 1/8 inch slices, or a tiny bit larger, but not 1/4 inch. I put a tiny bit of oil in a non stick frying pan. Stovetop is on low heat. I cover the bottom of the frying pan with the potatoes; trying to keep one layer or 2.. I put a cover on the fry pan. Cook low and slow, flipping the potatoes over periodically, until they are soft, with a touch of browning.. or crunch. Then, I turn up the heat and add either one or two eggs, scrambled.. Keep flipping, until egg is cooked and the potatoes are at the stage I want.
You can add onions, sliced peppers, what ever...
I usually call it a Polish Frittata!!

It is really easy, kind of different...
My mom used to make it without the egg, to accompany some pan friend steak!! With the egg, it is a meal in itself! One of my favorite quick meals.
I finally learned how to properly fry potatoes this year - exactly as you describe it. I don’t add anything to them except onions , but they always turn out perfect.

Sauteed sliced onion ad sweet red pepper while water boiled (in a different pot.) Added wide noodles to boiling water, shrimp to sliced onion / pepper in other pot. When noodles almost done added some frozen green peas to pot of seething water, and a couple of spoonfuls of yesterday's onion soup sour cream dip to shrimp. Poured off water, ladled noodles and peas into bowls. Topped with onion, pepper, shrimp, melted onion dip. And it was yummy.
