Red Potatoes a la Grandma P.

This is a recipe that, as far as I know, my mother came up with on her own. I am very thankful that she did because it is a very yummy way to cook potatoes. Of course, some will balk at the butter in the recipe, but then they can chalk it up to a caloric splurge.

This recipe is beautifully simple. All that is needed is an onion or two (the more the merrier for this family!), a couple red potatoes, butter, a corningware dish (ours is like the one on the right) and a piece of tinfoil.

First, halve the onion and cut it into ribbons. Then scrub and cut the potatoes. Make them as small as you like. The smaller the better as they then cook faster. Add about four tablespoons of butter to the dish with the potatoes and onions, cover with tinfoil and place it in the oven along side your roast or pan of chicken for about 30-45 minutes.
