Making my oven fried potatoes for the first time in a couple of years.

Slice potatoes about 1/8 in thick (washed, peeled optional)

Put in greased baking dish

Slice onions, top the potatoes

Chop garlic, sprinkle over potatoes

Add some form of oil (margarine, Olivio, butter)

Put in 425-450 deg oven, Mix every 10 minutes at first, until potatoes are coated with oil.

Then you can reduce to 15-20 minutes, I think

When the top ones are browned, and all are soft, they are done

In #2 Occasional Reader said: “ The Irish pub“?  Well, that sure narrows things down...

You never see "The Swedish Pub" or "The Russian Pub" (vodka - you will drink it)

Or the Mexican Pub, with what was described in an article as Mexican Mouthwash, otherwise known as Tequila ("This ain't your grandpa's tequila. This is your grandpa's gardener's tequila:)

But is there a pub in England called the "Peruvian Pub"? I doubt it

And, unfortunately, there probably is no pub in Casablanca called Rick's American

On second thought, that was just what everyone called it. The official name of the place was “The Brenchley Arms”, if memory serves.  

Yes, memory does serve, and apparently it is still in business:

At least back in the day, it was well liked by male Anglophone ex-pats, and the Peruvian girls who were looking to meet them.
