Description

Directions

• CARAMELIZE THE ONIONS:
• Add 2-3 Tbsp butter to a large skillet and heat over MED to MED-HIGH heat. Add diced onions to pan, and saute, stirring often, for 3-5 minutes.
• Season with thyme, salt, and pepper.
• Reduce heat to MED-LOW and saute, stirring occasionally, for 10-20 minutes, until onions are soft and golden brown in color.
• Remove from heat and set aside.
• COOK THE POTATOES:
• If using baby yukon gold potatoes, halve the smaller ones, and quarter the larger ones.
• Add sliced potatoes to a large clean, dry pot. Cover with cold water, about 1 above the potatoes, and season with 1 tsp salt.
• Cover, and bring to a boil. Once boiling, remove lid and boil for 15-20 minutes, or until potatoes are tender when pierced with a fork.
• Drain potatoes, then return to the same pot.
• Microwave heavy cream and butter for 1 minute, then pour over cooked potatoes.
• Mash until desired consistency. Alternatively, beat with a hand mixer.
• Use a wooden spoon to stir in salt, pepper, dijon mustard, horseradish and caramelized onions.
• Garnish with minced parsley.
