Yield Serves 2

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 yellow onions (each about 3 inches in diameter), unpeeled
olive oil for brushing onions
8 ounces red potatoes (about 2 medium)
1 tablespoon dry white wine
1 tablespoon water
2 tablespoons heavy cream
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
2 tablespoons freshly grated Parmesan

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375°F.
  • Trim root ends flush with onions (so they will stand upright). Cut off tops of onions 1 inch from pointed blossom end and reserve. In a small flameproof baking pan stand onions upright and replace reserved tops. Brush onions with oil a roast in middle of oven 1 hour and 15 minutes, or until centers are just knife-tender.
  • While onions are roasting, in a saucepan boil potatoes in water to cover 15 minutes, or until tender, and drain in a colander. Cool potatoes until they can just be handled and peel. Return potatoes to pan.
  • Transfer onions to a work surface to cool and add wine, water, and cream to baking pan. On top of stove cook cream mixture over moderate heat, stirring, until brown bits scraped from bottom of baking pan are just dissolved and add to potatoes.
  • Leaving outermost layer of each onion inside skin, carefully scoop remaining layers out of onion shells with a small spoon and chop. In a small skillet sauté chopped onion in butter over moderately high heat until golden and add to potato mixture.
  • Increase oven temperature to 425°F.
  • Mash potato mixture with a potato masher until potatoes ate coarsely mashed and liquid is incorporated and force through a food mill fitted with fine disk into a bowl. Stir in Parmesan and season with salt and pepper. Spoon potato mixture into onion shells and replace tops. Onions may be prepared up to this point 1 day ahead and chilled, covered.
  • In a small baking pan roast onions in middle of oven until heated through, 15 to 25 minutes.

POTATO-STUFFED ONIONS

These oniony potato cups are a nice switch from the usual side dishes. I sometimes add cheese to the cups for a tasty twist. Either way, they're savory and satisfying. I use green onions when I want a bit more color.-Cheryl Norwood, Canton, Georgia

(Web Exclusive) Round 2 Recipe: Potato Stuffed Onions image

Provided by Sandra Lee

Categories     side-dish

Time 32m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

4 medium yellow onions, peeled
1/2 cup shredded Cheddar
1 cup leftover Potato Salad
1 pound red potatoes, cut in to 1-inch cubes
1 bunch scallions, washed
2 tablespoons mayonnaise
2 tablespoons sour cream
1 tablespoon spicy brown mustard
1 teaspoon chopped garlic
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
Pinch freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees F
  • Slice the top third off each onion and set aside; save tops. Slice an X in the inner 2/3 of each onion. Using a spoon remove the inner 2/3 portion of the onion making a bowl. Dice up the inner section of each onion, on a cutting board, and set aside.
  • Mix the shredded cheese with the potato salad in a small bowl. Evenly divide the potato mixture into each onion bowl and cover with the reserved onion top. Place on a baking sheet and bake for 20 minutes or until onions are tender.
  • Bring a medium pot of salted water to a boil over medium heat. Add potatoes and cook for 8 minutes or until slightly tender. Strain, place in large bowl and let cool until slightly warm.
  • While potatoes are cooking, set up grill or grill pan for direct cooking over medium heat. Place scallions on hot oiled grill and cook for 4 minutes. Transfer to a cutting board and set aside.
  • To the bowl with the potatoes add mayonnaise, sour cream, mustard, garlic, salt and pepper and gently mix until well blended and potatoes are coated. Slice grilled scallions and mix into the potatoes. Serve immediately or keep covered in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.

Tips:

  • Select medium-sized onions of uniform size for even cooking.
  • Use a sharp knife to carefully scoop out the onion centers, leaving intact shells.
  • Cook the onion shells in boiling water for a few minutes to soften them and prevent them from breaking during stuffing.
  • Use a variety of fillings to suit your taste, such as seasoned ground beef, turkey, sausage, or a mixture of vegetables.
  • Add herbs, spices, and sauces to the filling for extra flavor.
  • Stuff the onion shells tightly with the filling, mounding it slightly on top.
  • Bake the stuffed onions in a preheated oven until the onions are tender and the filling is cooked through.
  • Serve the stuffed onions hot, garnished with fresh herbs or grated cheese.
