  1. Place a medium frypan over medium heat, add butter and diced potatoes. Cook, tossing until softened and browned on the outside. About 10 minutes. Adjust heat to avoid burning.
  2. Add the onion and bacon and toss through, cook for a few minutes to render some of the bacon fat and soften the onion.

  4. Serve with chives and cottage cheese.
