Mom's Parsley Potatoes image

My mother loved potatoes, and she was always on the lookout for ooey-gooey potato recipes. Here is one from my treasure trove of her recipes. This one, I'm sure, actually came from a church potluck, and I actually have it written in her handwriting! This recipe works as a sub for mashed potatoes, or baked potatoes, when you don't want to set out a lot of condiment dishes. Use cheddar or Swiss cheese, instead of Gruyere, if you prefer.

Time 35m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 pounds red potatoes, scrubbed and cut into 1-inch pieces
¼ cup unsalted butter
1 cup chopped onion
½ teaspoon salt, or to taste
¼ teaspoon ground black pepper, or to taste
⅔ cup sour cream
⅓ cup shredded Gruyere cheese
⅓ cup chopped fresh parsley

Steps:

  • Place potatoes into a large pot and cover with salted water; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until barely tender, about 10 minutes. Drain and set aside.
  • Melt butter in the same pot over medium-low heat. Add onion, season with salt and pepper, and cook until onions are starting to turn clear, 2 to 3 minutes. Add potatoes, cover, and cook over low heat, stirring occasionally, until cooked through, about 5 minutes.
  • Remove from heat and stir in sour cream, Gruyere cheese, and parsley. Cover, and allow to sit until cheese is melted, about 5 minutes. Stir before serving.
