the easiest best recipe i have found for potatoes is potatoes lyonnaise....very easy and delicious.......slice potatoes.....put in a glass dish and put in microwave.....cook for 6 minutes...while theyre cooking....dice and cook an onion and saute in olive oil and butter...when the potatoes are done in microwave...pour them into the pan with onions and cook till good and brown...season with salt and pepper..and enjoy...i dont usually like the microwave...but it seems to dry the potatoes so they brown nicely...tried it just by pan frying...didnt work nearly as well!!! If you want to make this Mexican..sprinkle with chili powder and cumin..and serve with salsa and sour cream!!!!

Spiced potatoes - delicious
6 fresh green Anaheim or poblano chiles (3/4 lb)
2 cups heavy cream or half-and-half
1 large garlic clove
2 1/2 lb russet (baking) potatoes (5)
Special equipment: a mandoline or other manual slicer
Preparation
Preheat oven to 375°F.
Lay chiles on their sides on rack of a gas burner and turn flame on high. (Or put chiles on rack of broiler pan about 2 inches from heat.) Roast chiles, turning with tongs, until skins are blackened, 5 to 8 minutes. Transfer chiles to a bowl and let stand, covered, 15 minutes.
Rub skins off chiles with paper towels and discard stems and seeds (if desired, devein to further reduce heat).
Bring cream with garlic just to a simmer and remove from heat. Peel potatoes and cut crosswise into 3/4-inch-thick slices using mandoline.
Arrange one fourth of potatoes evenly in bottom of a well-buttered 2-quart shallow baking dish, overlapping them slightly, and sprinkle with salt to taste and one fourth of chiles. Make 3 more layers in same manner. Remove garlic from cream and pour cream over potatoes. Cover dish with foil and bake in lower third of oven 45 minutes. Remove foil and bake until gratin is golden brown on top and bubbling, about 30 minutes more. Cool slightly before serving.
Cooks’ note:
• Gratin can be baked 1 day ahead, then cooled completely before being chilled, covered. Bring to room temperature before reheating, covered, in a 350°F oven.

Polish potatoes.
You cut them up into half circles and dice up some onion...
Then in a pan, melt butter and saute/fry the potatoes and onions until they get kind of brownish/crispy ..... but not burnt.
Add salt to taste.
