Ingredients

• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 onion, chopped
• 3 cloves garlic, minced

• 2 potatoes, peeled and sliced
• 2 potatoes, peeled and quartered

Instructions

1. Heat the olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Stir in the onion, garlic, salt, and pepper. Cook and stir until the onion has softened and turned translucent, about 5 minutes.
