Important: the chef recommends frying potatoes on high heat, stirring them occasionally, and adding salt at the end of cooking, when the golden crust appears.
4. Cut the onion into cubes, bacon into strips.
5. Put the bacon on a preheated frying pan separately and as soon as it starts to release fat, add the onions. Stir to combine.
