According to some authorities, this dish, known throughout the world as “pommes de terre lyonnaise,” and which the French claim as their own, is of Italian origin, and for many centuries has been one of the most famous dishes in Venice—“patate alla veneziana.” The recipes are identical, except that in the Italian version the potatoes and onions are sauté in a mixture of butter and oil, whereas in the French recipe butter alone is generally used.
