Ricci's Potatoes

Recipesfull introduces to you: Potato Side Dish Recipes. (Ricci's Potatoes). A terrific alternative to tired mashed potatoes for holiday meals. This dish must be started two days before serving but on the day of your meal, all you have to do is pop it in the oven. I don't know who Ricci is but this came through my family in Syracuse.

Ricci's Potatoes

Ingredients

8 baking potatoes

1 cup butter

melted and cooled to lukewarm

3 cups half-and-half cream

1 onion

chopped

salt and pepper to taste

Side Dish

Directions

Step 1

Two days before serving boil potatoes whole with skins until tender about 25 minutes. When you can insert a fork and remove it easily they are done. Drain and refrigerate.

Step 2

The day before serving peel and grate the potatoes. I like to use a food processor with grating attachment. Place the potatoes into a large bowl and toss gently with melted butter half-and-half onion salt and pepper. Cover and refrigerate.

Step 3

The day of the meal preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Bake for 1 hour uncovered. You may broil for a minute at the end to brown the top if you like.
