This recipe was posted on rec.food.recipes by John Droge a few days
ago. Is it what you are looking for?

My Mom and Dad's Bratkartoffel

My parents both grew up on farms in Germany near the North Sea. This
is
how they made it on the farm

3-4 cups boiled potatoes, cold, peeled and sliced into about the size
of
quarters
about 3-4 slices of bacon diced
about 1/2 cup diced yellow onions

Start frying the bacon
When you get some grease in the pan add onion
When bacon and onion start to get a little brown add potatoes
Continue till potatoes are browned lightly
My Mom would often add some beaten eggs at the end and that's what we
frequently had for lunch and sometimes for dinner.
