A yummy side dish. Add sliced polish sausage or leftover ham for an easy main dish. This originated as Depression meal when my Polish grandmother could not afford meat. She could go to her cellar for her own canned carrots and tomatoes and then to the root cellar for the potatoes.
Ingredients:
4 tablespoons rendered bacon fat
4 russet potatoes, peeled and cubed
1/2 cup chopped onion
2 (14 1/2 ounce) cans diced tomatoes
1 clove garlic, pressed
1 (14 1/2 ounce) can sliced carrots, drained or 1 1/2 cups fresh cooked carrots
1 bay leaf
salt
pepper
Directions:
1. Saute potatoes and onions in bacon fat covered over low heat, turning occasionally until onions are transparent.
2. Add remaining ingredients and simmer until potatoes are tender.
