Recipe: Potatoes Foster (mashed then baked with onion, sour cream and cheddar)

POTATOES FOSTER

Combine the potatoes with enough water to cover in a saucepan. Bring to a boil. Boil for 45 minutes or until tender; drain. Mash the potatoes.

Saute the onions in the butter in a skillet for 3 minutes or until tender. Stir in the cheese and sour cream. Cook until the cheese melts, stirring constantly.
