Mashed potatoes with fried onions and apple slices

Ingredients for 2 servings:

• 500 g potatoes, floury
• salt water
• 200 ml milk
• 50 g butter
• 3 onions, depending on size
• ½ apple
• 1 bunch of parsley
• salt and pepper
• nutmeg

Instructions

Working time approx. 20 minutes; Cooking/baking time approx. 40 minutes; Total time approx. 1 hour

Cut the three onions into the desired size (about fingertip-sized, but rings or similar will also work). Heat the butter in a pan and fry the onions over medium heat, stirring frequently, until golden brown. Meanwhile, wash and peel the potatoes and cut them into roughly equal-sized pieces. Boil in salted water for about 20 minutes. In the meantime, remove the browned onions from the pan and let them drain on kitchen paper. Then roughly chop the parsley and heat a pan. Thinly slice half an apple and toss them in the pan with a little butter. Mash the cooked potatoes and add the room-temperature milk. Use more or less milk to taste. Stir in 1 tablespoon of butter, the roasted onions and the parsley, and season with salt, pepper and nutmeg. Transfer the puree to a bowl, sprinkle over more parsley, and serve with the warm apple slices.
