MICROWAVED NEW POTATOES WITH ONIONS


Today’s recipe is extremely simple---but I think sometimes we forget that the “ordinary” dishes we serve our families are the very ones that they request over and over again.   Enjoy!!

Ingredients:
New (red) potatoes—or potatoes of your choice
Sweet  onions
Kosher Salt
Black pepper
Margarine (butter or olive oil if you prefer)

Instructions:
*Spray a square pyrex baking dish with PAM  (a larger dish may be used if you need to make more).
*Wash and scrub potatoes with a vegetable brush, removing any dirt
*Leave red skin on potatoes
*Using a paring knife, remove any blemishes
*Cut each potato into quarters (or large bite-sized pieces) and place in prepared baking dish
*Peel and cut onion into large bite-sized pieces and place in prepared baking dish.
*Fill baking dish with potatoes and onions and then sprinkle with kosher salt and pepper
*Place desired amount of margarine, butter or olive oil over vegetables
*Microwave at 10 minute intervals, stirring often until vegetables are tender.
*When vegetables are tender, serve as is or place in the oven at 425 degrees to crisp the outsides of the potatoes a bit.
