Creamy Onion Potatoes Recipes

Steps:

• Melt 1 tablespoon butter with oil in heavy large pot over medium heat.
• Add onions and sauté until soft, about 5 minutes.
• Add potatoes and 2 cups water; bring to boil.
• Cover and simmer until potatoes are tender, stirring occasionally, about 25 minutes.
• Uncover and simmer until almost all water evaporates, about 5 minutes.
• Remove from heat.
• Add crème fraîche and 1 tablespoon butter.
• Stir gently to blend, being careful not to break up potatoes.
• Season with salt and pepper.
• Can be made 2 hours ahead- Let stand at room temperature and rewarm over low heat before serving.
• Sprinkle with parsley.

Steps:

• Fill a large mixing bowl with cold water. With a swivel-bladed vegetable peeler, peel each potato and remove any "eyes," then cut it in quarters with a sharp knife and put in the bowl of water.
• Put the potatoes in a large pot and add cold water to cover them. Salt the water. Over high heat, bring the water to a boil, skimming off foam that rises to the surface; then reduce the heat to maintain a simmer and cook the potatoes just until tender enough to be pierced easily with a skewer or a sharp knife tip.
• While the potatoes are boiling, prepare the onions: In a deep-fryer or a deep, heavy saucepan, heat about 3 inches of oil to 375 degrees F. Lightly dust the onion rings with flour and carefully drop them into the hot oil, cooking them in batches if necessary to avoid overcrowding. Fry them until golden, 3 to 5 minutes, removing them with a slotted spoon or wire skimmer to drain on paper towels. Season lightly with salt and keep warm.
• When the potatoes are done, drain them immediately. Using a ricer or a food mill, puree the potatoes into a mixing bowl. Add the nutmeg, 8 tablespoons of the butter, and the hot cream. With a wooden spoon, stir them into the potatoes. Season, to taste, with salt and pepper.
• Mound the potatoes in a heated serving bowl. Put the remaining butter in a saucepan or skillet and, over medium-high heat, melt it and continue cooking just until it turns golden brown. Lightly season the butter with salt and immediately drizzle it over the potatoes.
• Pile the crispy onions on top of the mashed potatoes. Garnish with parsley and serve immediately.

Steps:

• In a stockpot or pasta pot, bring about 2 gallons of water to a boil with a palmful of salt and a splash of oil.
• Meanwhile, set a large frying pan over high heat, then coat the bottom of the pan with oil. Add the onions with a pinch of salt and cook, working in batches if necessary, until browned, about 2 minutes. Return all the onions to the pan, then turn the heat to medium-low and cover. Continue to cook, stirring frequently, until the onions have turned a deep golden color, about 20 minutes.
• Peel the potatoes and cut into 1-inch chunks. When the water has come to a full boil, add the potatoes. Cook, uncovered, until easily pierced with a fork, about 15 minutes. Drain and return to the pot.
• Using a potato masher or large whisk, begin to break down the potatoes. Add the sour cream, milk and butter and continue to mash until the desired consistency is reached. Season to taste with salt. Add the caramelized onions and chopped chives and mix well. Place in a large serving bowl and cover with foil to keep warm. Sprinkle with additional chives and crushed potato chips right before serving.

Steps:

• Melt 1 tablespoon butter with oil in heavy large pot over medium heat. Add onions and sauté until soft, about 5 minutes. Add potatoes and 2 cups water; bring to boil. Cover and simmer until potatoes are tender, stirring occasionally, about 25 minutes. Uncover and simmer until almost all water evaporates, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat. Add crème fraîche and 1 tablespoon butter. Stir gently to blend, being careful not to break up potatoes. Season with salt and pepper. (Can be made 2 hours ahead. Let stand at room temperature. Rewarm over low heat before serving.) Sprinkle with parsley.

Steps:

• Place 1 in. of water and potatoes in a large nonstick skillet; bring to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and simmer for 10 minutes or until tender; drain. Coat skillet with cooking spray; add potatoes and onion. Cook over medium heat for 5-7 minutes or until golden brown., In a saucepan, combine the flour, salad dressing mix, parsley and salt.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C).
• Combine potatoes and onion in a roasting pan; cover with canola oil and olive oil. Add garlic, onion soup mix, rosemary, and black pepper and stir until potatoes and onion are evenly coated. Cover roasting pan with aluminum foil.
• Roast in the preheated oven for 25 minutes. Remove foil and continue to roast until potatoes and onion are browned and edges are crispy, 15 to 30 minutes.

Steps:

• In a large pot over high heat, combine the potatoes, onions and water to cover and boil for 30 to 45 minutes, or until tender. Drain the mixture, reserving 3 cups of the water. Transfer this in small batches to a blender and puree until smooth.
• In the same pot over medium heat, combine the flour and the butter, stirring together well, to form a roux. Slowly add the milk, stirring constantly, until well blended. Reduce heat to low and add the pureed potato mixture. Let simmer, stirring occasionally for 5 to 10 minutes. Add the parsley and season with salt and pepper to taste.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350.
• Layer potatoes and onions in a greased casserole dish.
• Mix soups and milk, pour over potato/onion layers.
• Bake at 350 for 45 minutes or till tender.

Steps:

• Peel onion as thinly as possible.
• Peel the potatoes and slice as evenly as possible, about 1/8" thick.
• In a 4 quart heavy-bottomed saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat.
• Add the onion slices.
• Stir with a wooden spoon and cook until the onions are wilted and translucent.
• Add the cream and bring to a boil.
• Add the potatoes, folding them into the cream with a rubber spatula to make sure each slice is well coated.
• Add nutmeg and season with salt and pepper.
• Simmer until the cream begins to thicken and the potatoes are almost tender.
• They should still have some resistance to the bite.
• **(Recipe can be completed to this stage well in advance. If you are not ready to proceed with serving the potatoes, remove them from the pan and store in a covered container in the refrigerator).
• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• In 6-8 shallow, oven-proof gratin dishes, OR individual casseroles, OR in one large Pyrex baking dish, spoon a layer of potatoes and cream mixture about 1 inch deep.
• (It is not necessary to grease the dishes first).
• **The casseroles can be assembled to this point well in advance of baking.
• The potatoes will not discolor since they are already partially cooked.
• Bake in the upper third of the oven at 375 degrees for 12-15 minutes, or until the tip of a knife slides easily into the potatoes and they are golden brown on top.
• Serves 6-8.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with cooking spray.
• Place a layer of sliced onions on the bottom of the baking dish. Add a sprinkle of French onion soup mix and a layer of bacon pieces, followed by layers of potato slices, shredded cheese, and cream. Continue adding layers of the remaining ingredients, ending with a layer of shredded cheese on the top.
• Spray a piece of aluminum foil with cooking spray and cover the baking dish.
• Bake in the preheated oven until potatoes and onions are tender, 40 to 50 minutes. Remove foil and continue baking until nicely browned and bubbly, about 10 minutes more.

Steps:

• Peel potatoes, cut in chunks, cover with water and boil in a big pot about 15-20 minutes or until soft and will mash easily.
• Meanwhile, in a small skillet, saute onion and garlic in olive oil until soft- don't allow to brown or burn.
• Set aside.
• Drain potatoes and return to pan, add onion-garlic mixture and all other ingredients.
• Mash with potato masher for lumpier potatoes or use your mixer for smoother texture.
• Serve hot.

Steps:

• Up to 2 days before serving, heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Heat the oil in a large frying pan. Add the onions and thyme, cover, and cook over a gentle heat for 10-15 mins until softened and caramelised. Pour the cream and milk into a large bowl and season well. Add the potatoes and mix to combine.
• Butter a 23 x 28cm ovenproof dish, then layer in half the potatoes. Spread the onion mixture on top, then layer on the remaining potatoes. Press down with your hands. Pour over the milk mixture, which should come just level with the potatoes. If not, add a little more milk until it does. Cover with foil, then bake for 11⁄2 hrs until tender. Remove from the oven and leave to cool. Cover and store in the fridge.
• On the day, heat the oven to 220C/200C fan/gas 7. Uncover the gratin, spread the crème fraîche on top, then sprinkle over the Parmesan. Put in the oven and cook for 30 mins until the cheese is melted, the top crisp and golden brown, and the gratin piping hot. Serve garnished with extra thyme.

Steps:

• Do this firstly or while potatoes are boiling, in a skillet fry the onions in butter until golden brown (this might take about 15 minutes, and do not drain the butter, if you do you will have to add in more butter anyway!).
• Boil the russets in a large pot of boiling water until fork-tender; drain and transfer the cooked potatoes to a large bowl.
• Mash the potatoes with the whipping cream and fryed onion/butter mixture until fluffy (I use my Kitchen Aid stand mixer for this with the mixing attachment and make certain to mash the potatoes while they are still warm or hot).
• If desired you can add in more whipping cream depending on the consistancy you desire.
• Season with salt and tons of black pepper.

Steps:

• Heat oil in large skillet on medium heat. Add ham and 1/2 cup onions; cook 3 min. or until onions are softened, stirring frequently.
• Add potatoes and water; stir. Bring to boil; cover. Simmer on medium-low heat 12 to 15 min. or until potatoes are tender. Remove from skillet; drain.
• Cook cream cheese and milk in same skillet on low heat 3 to 5 min. or until cream cheese is completely melted and mixture is well blended, stirring frequently. Gently stir in potatoes. Sprinkle with remaining onions.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Butter a medium casserole dish.
• Layer 1/2 of the potatoes into bottom of the prepared casserole dish. Top with the onion slices, and add the remaining potatoes. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
• In a medium-size saucepan, melt butter over medium heat. Mix in the flour and salt, and stir constantly with a whisk for one minute. Stir in milk. Cook until mixture has thickened. Stir in cheese all at once, and continue stirring until melted, about 30 to 60 seconds. Pour cheese over the potatoes, and cover the dish with aluminum foil.
• Bake 1 1/2 hours in the preheated oven.

Steps:

• Place potatoes in a large saucepan and cover with water. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and cook for 10-15 minutes or until tender. Meanwhile, in another saucepan, melt butter. Stir in the flour, salt and pepper until smooth. Gradually add milk. Bring to a boil; cook and stir for 2 minutes or until thickened., Drain potatoes and place in a large serving bowl. Add cream sauce; toss gently to coat. Sprinkle with paprika and parsley.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Arrange potatoes on a baking sheet.
• Bake potatoes in the preheated oven until tender, about 1 hour.
• Melt 2 tablespoons butter in small pot over medium heat. Add green onions; cook until soft, about 4 minutes. Stir in flour until well blended, about 1 minute. Pour in milk and 1/2 cup half-and-half gradually, stirring sauce constantly. Season with salt and cook until sauce is thickened, 10 to 15 minutes.
• Cut a slice from the top of each baked potato and scoop the pulp into a bowl. Mash pulp until no lumps remain. Add 1/4 cup half-and-half and 1 tablespoon butter; blend together with an electric mixer. Stir in 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese and pepper until fully combined.
• Fill baked potato skins with the mashed pulp mixture; make a well on top of each potato. Fill wells with onion sauce. Sprinkle 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese on top.
• Turn on the broiler. Return stuffed potatoes to the oven and broil until golden brown; about 15 minutes.
