Bratkartoffeln is a German food that people often want to recreate at home. This beloved dish that's hard to pronounce (brat-kah-toff-len) translates as "fried potatoes," and it's indeed that: pan-fried potatoes, bacon, onions, and seasonings.

You can use our Double Smoked German Style Bacon in this recipe!

Ingredients:
4 cups potatoes, diced
1 large onion, chopped
8 slices Double Smoked German Style Bacon from Slavonija Deli
1 – 2 Tbsp (each) butter & olive oil
Salt & black pepper, to taste
Minced chives for garnish

Instructions
Peel and dice potatoes and place them in a bowl of cold water while the bacon is frying.
In a large non-stick frying pan, over medium heat, cook bacon until crispy.
Remove bacon from the pan and place on a paper-towel lined plate, reserving the bacon fat. When the bacon is cool, crumble and set aside.
Add the chopped onion to the bacon fat and cook until translucent.
Using a slotted spoon, remove onions and set aside.
Remove potatoes from the water, pat completely dry, add them along with butter and olive oil to the pan.
Cook over low heat until the potatoes are tender and golden.
As they cook, season with salt and black pepper.
When ready, add the chopped onions and crumbled bacon back to the pan with the potatoes and give them a gentle stir.
Place on a serving platter and top with minced chives.

Crispy pork hocks aren't just for Octoberfest - it can be your pre-Christmas feast! Smoked pork hocks (Hint: we sell them!) have a distinct flavor that makes them popular in Southern and German dishes. Here's how you can cook them:

Things You'll Need
1 smoked pork hock
Paper towel
Salt and pepper, to taste
Frying pan
Cooking oil
Large roasting pan
Enough beef or chicken broth to fill the roasting pan halfway
Oven
Baster
Additional vegetables of choice (optional)

Prepare the Pork Hock
Wash and dry your pork hock with a paper towel.

Season It
Season with a mixture of salt and pepper all over.

Brown Your Ham Hock on the Stove
Cooking ham hocks on the stove first will help to seal in the moisture and flavor. Place your ham hock a pan with oil on medium heat and brown the ham hock on each side.

Prepare it For the Oven
Place the pork hock in a roasting pan and add in beef or chicken broth for flavor and moisture, filling the pan about halfway.

Roast the Ham Hock
Bake the ham hock in the oven for 1 hour and 40 minutes at 200 degrees Celcius.

Baste and Let it Cook
To keep your ham hock moist, baste it every 15 minutes with your broth using your baster. After it has been cooking for about an hour, you can add in vegetables if you wish.

For the last 30 minutes of cooking time, increase the heat to 220 C for a perfectly baked ham hock.
