CREAMY MASHED POTATOES WITH CRISPY BROWN ONIONS

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.

CRUNCHY ONION POTATOES

Steps:

• Heat oven to 450F degrees and lightly grease a 13"x9" ovenproof dish.

• Sprinkle potatoes with garlic, salt, pepper and thyme.
• In a bowl whisk together the eggs and milk; mix well.
• Mix bread crumbs and Italian seasoning.
• Dip onion rings into the milk and then in the crumbs.
• Pat the crumbs onto the onion rings so they fully cover and adhere to the rings.
• Arrange onion rings in a single layer on top of the potatoes.
• Bake the casserole, turning the onion rings once during baking for about 30-35 minutes, or until the potatoes are cooked and the onion rings are crisp and brown.

RIDICULOUSLY GOOD TOASTED ONION MASHED POTATOES

Steps:

• Saute onions in unsalted butter with a drizzling of olive oil until a toasted golden brown and tender, anywhere from 10 - 20 minutes. Add Kosher salt (about half a teaspoon) and pepper to taste. Reserve.
• Peel potatoes and then chop into chunks, cover with water plus one inch, and then boil with a pinch of salt. Potatoes are finished when you can easily push a fork into the chunks, approximately 30 minutes at a rolling boil. Drain when done.
• Combine drained potatoes and reserved onions. Add salted butter (can add more, to taste), plus cream or milk (less or more to reach desired texture), and Kosher salt and pepper to taste.
• Sour cream may be added for texture and taste, as well.
• Variant: Real bacon bits, fried crispy, can be added for extra dimension or taste.
• Note: I never skimp with the salted butter. I start with half a stick and then keep adding until I'm satisfied, same with the salt added to the potatoes (not onions). I've had a lot of bland mashed potatoes in my day, and salt and butter fixes that, every time.
