Next you’ll need onions. Depending on how many you’re making the fries for, cut up about 1 medium sized onion per 2 servings into slices. Then you may have to do this next bit in batches.

fry them in a shallow pan — fry the onions in a shallow pan with a little bit of oil

once they're soft add in the potatoes. — once they’re softened, salt them a little bit
