This is a recipe I found on Instructables and then modified to fit what I had on hand. Mine is more like a hot Amish Potato Salad, but was still quite good.
The Hardware
- Pan to boil potatoes in
- Skillet or saucier
- Cutting board
- knife
The Software
- Potatoes – however many you feel you can eat. Chop these into wedges of a uniform size
- Onion – I used 1/2 of a vidalia but feel free to use as much or as little as you’d like
- Mustard – once again, your choice. I used plain old yellow mustard
- Spices – salt, black pepper, chili powder, red pepper flake
This is a REALLY basic recipe. Chop and boil your potatoes. While they are boiling, heat some oil (I used the Olive variety) in your saucier and add your diced onions and any seasonings you’d like. Looking to sweat the onions, shooting for translucent. When they’ve reached that stage, add a tablespoon of mustard to them and mix. This is just to stop them from cooking any farther.
Once the potatoes are boiled to an acceptable mouthfeel texture, drain them and put them back in your pot. Add your onions and toss. At this point, add extra mustard to cover your potatoes and any seasonings you feel are needed to taste.
Serve as a side dish, maybe topped with a bit of shredded cheese.
