How to Make Mashed Potatoes With Caramelized Onion And Olive Oil
- Peel and chop 2 lbs Yukon Gold potatoes into roughly 1-inch pieces.
- Place potatoes in a large, heavy-bottomed pot. Add enough cold water to cover by 2 inches.
- Bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Reduce heat to medium and simmer until potatoes are easily pierced with a fork, about 20-25 minutes.
- Drain potatoes, reserving 1 ½ cups of the cooking liquid.
- Return the potatoes to the pot. Cook over medium heat, stirring frequently, until any excess moisture evaporates (about 2-3 minutes).
- Add 4 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil and mash until almost smooth, leaving some texture.
- Gradually add the reserved potato cooking liquid, a little at a time, until you reach your desired consistency.
- While potatoes are cooking, prepare the caramelized onions (see step 9-11).
- Add 3 tablespoons olive oil to a medium saucepan. Add 2 large yellow onions, thinly sliced.
- Cook over medium-low heat, stirring occasionally, until the onions are deeply caramelized and golden brown, about 20-25 minutes. Add 2 cloves garlic, minced, during the last minute of cooking.
- Stir the caramelized onions into the mashed potatoes.
- Season generously with salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste.
