Creamy Mashed Potatoes With Caramelized Onions Recipe - Cooking Index
If I were to choose my favorite topping for mashed potatoes it would be shaved white truffles. But the fried onions, or if you prefer, leeks, are delicious, adding flavor and texture to the potatoes.

| Cut into chunks | ||

Spoon some of the mashed potatoes onto 5 or 6 warmed plates and top with a few of the caramelized onions and chopped parsley. Serve immediately.
