Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 5

4 or 5 medium white potatoes (yukon gold potatoes work very well, too)
1 medium onion
1/4 to 1/2 c whole milk
butter to taste
salt and pepper to taste

Steps:

  • 1. Peel and rinse potatoes. Cut into pieces and put into a large saucepan. Peel and quarter onion and put into pan with potatoes. Cover with water bring to a boil. Cover and cook until tender.
  • 2. When potatoes are done, pour off most of the water. It's okay if there's a little water left with the potatoes. Add milk, butter, salt and pepper.
  • 3. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly until butter is melted and potatoes have thickened. This usually only takes a few minutes. Do not mash, but leave in chunks. Serve with your favorite meat and vegetables.
