Mary Jane's Potatoes image

Our Aunt Mary Jane made these potatoes at a family reunion back in '76 and they have been a family staple ever since! They go great with anything, and are so easy! I recommend any waxy potato, as russets etc. tend to be too dry.

Categories     Potato

Time 1h15m

Yield 6-10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

6 -8 large white potatoes or 6 -8 large yukon gold potatoes
1 large sweet onion, diced to about 1/4 inch pieces (Walla Wallas are the best)
1/2 cup butter, one cube
2 cups cream or 2 cups half-and-half
1/2 teaspoon seasoning salt (or to taste)

Steps:

  • Boil potatoes WITH THE SKIN ON until barely fork tender, about 20 minutes.
  • Drain and cool.
  • While potatoes are cooling, saute onion in butter just until opaque. You don't want them browned. Set aside.
  • When cool enough to handle, peel potatoes and grate them into a 9 x 13 casserole.
  • Top potatoes with onions and butter, and sprinkle on seasoning salt to taste.
  • Pour cream over potatoes.
  • Bake in a preheated 350°F oven for about 45 minutes or until golden brown on top and cream has cooked into the potatoes.
