Published 04/13/2014

Ingredients

• 3 tablespoons unsalted butter
• 4 yellow onions, sliced
• 1 tablespoon white wine vinegar
• 1 teaspoon fresh thyme
• 3 lbs red potatoes, washed and cubed
• 1 tablespoon Maille Dijon Mustard with Horseradish
• salt and pepper to taste
• 1/4 cup unsalted butter
• 3/4 cup half and half, warmed

Instructions

1. Melt 3 tablespoons butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the onions and cook for 5 minutes. Reduce heat to medium, and continue cooking, stirring frequently, until the onions have softened, and achieved a deep brown color, about 20-25 minutes. Stir in 1 tablespoon white wine vinegar and 1 teaspoon fresh thyme. Cook for 5 more minutes.
2. While the onions are cooking, place cubed potatoes in a large pot and cover with salted water. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat slightly so you still have a good boil and cook until tender. About 10 minutes. Drain.
3. Return the potatoes to the pot and add 1 tablespoon Maille Dijon Mustard with Horseradish, 1/4 cup butter and 1/2 cup warmed half and half. Mash potatoes. Add in more half and half as needed for desired consistency. Fold in the caramelized onions. Give it a taste and add salt and pepper as needed. Adjust the flavors to your liking. Enjoy!
