Baked Potato Mashed Potatoes image

This is a recipe for french onion mashed potatoes, in which I, again, added my own twist. The trick to this is to keep everything hot throughout the entire process.

Time 35m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 lbs potatoes, of choice
6 tablespoons butter
1 1/2 cups chopped onions
1/4 teaspoon pepper
salt
3/4 cup milk
1/4 cup cooking sherry
3/4 cup shredded mozzarella cheese (optional) or 3/4 cup gruyere cheese (optional)
minced chives (as desired)
bacon bits (as desired)
cheddar cheese (as desired)
sour cream (as desired)

Steps:

  • Peel the potatoes & cut them into halves or quarters, depending on size.
  • Put in a large pot of water with a pinch of salt. Bring to a boil, then cook approximately 20 minutes until the potatoes are tender.
  • In small pan, heat the milk & 4 tablespoons of the butter. Cook until melted & warm.
  • In separate pan, sauté the onions in remaining 2 tablespoons of butter until caramelized to a golden brown. Add the sherry to the pan & sauté another 2 minutes until liquid evaporates.
  • Drain potatoes. Add the milk/butter mixture & start mashing. Season with salt & pepper, then add onions.
  • Fold in the cheese.
  • Remove from the heat. I recommend dishing up single servings & adding the remaining ingredients to those. You may also exclude the last 3 ingredients and simply top with gravy.
