***NOTE***
Do NOT replace the butter in this recipe for anything
else. I can tell you from my experience and
experimentation that the results are NOT the same. It
is the combination of tastes of butter, onions and
cinnamon that make this dish. I have even tried
combinations of oleo and butter, and oil and butter
with disastrous results. The frying fat MUST be pure,
100% butter.

Peel and slice potatoes. Peel and chop onions. Melt
butter in a skillet. Place potatoes and onion in
skillet. Add salt and pepper to taste. Add cinnamon
(I used the quantity of 2 tb, this is merely a
guesstimate, I use a VERY generous amount). Fry on
medium heat, turning occasionally, until potatoes are
tender and slightly browned. Great served with shirred
eggs or fried eggs with crisp bacon.
