Ingredients
– 4 cups of diced potatoes (I like using Yukon Gold)
– 2 cups of diced cooked ham
– 1 cup of shredded cheddar cheese (or your favorite cheese blend)
– 1 cup of milk
– 1 small onion, finely chopped
– 2 tablespoons of butter
– Salt and pepper to taste
– Optional: chopped green onions for garnish
Equipment Needed
– Large skillet (I prefer a cast-iron skillet for even cooking)
– Cutting board
– Knife
– Measuring cups and spoons
– Spatula
Step-by-Step Instructions
To begin, I heat my skillet over medium heat and add the butter. As it melts, I throw in the chopped onions, allowing them to sauté for about 3-4 minutes until they become translucent and fragrant. Then, I toss in the diced potatoes, stirring them well to coat them in the buttery goodness. After that, I add a splash of the milk to help steam the potatoes, cover the skillet, and let everything cook for about 15-20 minutes. This is where the smell starts to fill my kitchen with warmth!
