Cut the potatoes into cubes, making sure to keep the size consistent. Put the potatoes in a microwave safe bowl and sprinkle with your pinch of salt. Cover the potatoes with a paper towel or other loose lid (to allow the potatoes to steam) and microwave on high for 6 minutes, stirring the potatoes once halfway through.

In the last few minutes heat up a large non-stick skillet on medium high heat, about a 7 on the dial. Once the pan is hot add your coconut oil and allow to melt completely.

Add your potatoes and onion to the pan, stirring it all together to coat it with the coconut oil. Flatten out the potatoes so they are even in the pan. Allow them to sit without stirring or flipping (I know it's hard but you can do it!) for at least 3 minutes, you should start to see the edges brown a little.

Flip or stir the potatoes. Continue this process of letting them sit for 2-3 minutes on each side and then flip again for about 20 minutes or until you have reached the desired crispness.

Eat immediately! These are awesome with a couple of fried eggs on top!
