Fried pork fat with onions
Description
The recipe won't take much time. Fried pork fat with onions is my favorite breakfast dish. It's especially good during cold seasons when you crave more meat and more fat, but sometimes I also prepare fried meat with onions in summer and serve it with potatoes. Once I tried cooking this dish over an open fire in a cast-iron skillet and was absolutely delighted. The pork fat and onions acquired the most delicious smoky cast-iron flavor. Unforgettable taste sensations! :) Serve hot.
