MASHED POTATOES WITH ONIONS

Steps:

• Sauté onion in a little bit of oil or butter (which ever you prefer) over medium heat. Until its a nice golden brown, and soft.
• Peel and chop potatoes, cover with water (salt the water) and bring to a boil. Then bring it down to a simmer for 15-20 minutes until you can easily poke a fork thru the potatoes. Drain potatoes.
• Add in milk (it shouldnt be cold), butter, salt and pepper to taste. Mash all ingredients together with potatoes until you get the consistency you like. Some like super creamy, others like somewhat lumpy. (I think lumps give it more of the homemade feel)
• Fold in onions and serve.

THE BEST MASHED POTATOES

Steps:

• Put the potatoes in a large pot and cover with cold water. Generously salt the water and bring to a boil over high heat. Then lower the heat to medium and gently simmer until the potatoes are completely tender when pierced with the tip of a knife, about 30 minutes.
• Drain the potatoes well and return them to the pot. Place the pot over low heat and let any residual water steam off, about 2 minutes. Mash the potatoes well with a potato masher. Fold in the butter with a spatula until melted, and then fold in the cream. Season with salt and pepper.
