Instructions:
-
Prepare Potatoes:
Start by peeling and chopping the white potatoes into chunks. In a saucepan, bring salted water to a boil and add the potato chunks. Cook until tender, then drain and mash them to a smooth consistency. -
Saute Mushrooms and Onion:
While the potatoes are cooking, heat 2 tablespoons of butter in a skillet over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sliced mushrooms, and sauté for 3-4 minutes or until they turn tender and golden brown. -
Combine Ingredients:
Transfer the sautéed mushrooms and onions into the mashed potatoes. Add the sour cream, salt, and pepper to the mixture. Stir well until all ingredients are thoroughly combined, ensuring a creamy and flavorful texture. -
Assemble the Dish:
Grease a 2-quart baking dish with butter or cooking spray. Spoon the creamy mushroom and potato mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it evenly. -
Add Toppings:
Sprinkle the top of the potato mixture with grated Parmesan cheese, adding a rich and savory layer of flavor. Dot the surface with the remaining butter, allowing it to melt and infuse the dish with its deliciousness. -
Bake to Perfection:
Preheat your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit (200 degrees Celsius). Place the baking dish, uncovered, in the preheated oven. Bake for 20-25 minutes or until the dish is heated through and the top turns golden brown, creating a tantalizingly crispy crust. -
Serve and Enjoy:
Once baked to perfection, remove the Creamy Mushroom Potato Bake from the oven and allow it to cool slightly before serving. Garnish with fresh herbs if desired, and serve as a delectable side dish alongside your favorite main course.
