Ingredients
- 5 pounds russet potatoes, peeled, cut into 1-inch cubes
- 1 1/2 sticks of butter (or more!)
- 2 medium yellow onions, sliced
- salt and pepper, to taste
Instructions
- In a large pot, cover the potato cubes with salted water and boil until they’re just tender but still hold together.
- Drain, put the potatoes back into the pot and set aside.
- Melt the butter over medium heat in a frying pan.
- Fry the onions in the butter until golden.
- Pour the butter and onions over the potatoes and mix well (you’re not making mashed potatoes, though, so the mixture should be a combination of chunks and mashed bits all mixed up together).
- Season with salt and pepper, to taste.
