5 medium waxy potatoes cut into one-inch cubes
1 onion, sliced
2/3 or 1 cup dried tart cherries
3 tbsp olive oil (plus 1 to 2 extra tbsp if needed)
1 to 2 tsp crushed red chilies (optional)
Salt and pepper to taste
Saute the onions and cherries over low-medium heat for 15 minutes or until the onions become a deep brown (but not burnt).
At the same time as the onions are cooking, boil the potatoes in salted water until fork tender.
Add the potatoes to the skillet with the onions (with the extra oil if needed) and saute for five minutes on high to crisp up the potatoes
Season with salt, pepper and chilies, to taste.
