The first time I tasted this combination was 53 years ago at my mother-in-law's house. My husband assured me I'd love this side dish and he was right. I changed the recipe slightly and like to make it with the first crop of Vidalia onions. -Stella Paukovich, Apollo, Pennsylvania Ingredients:
2 medium potatoes, peeled and cubed |
1 tablespoon butter |
4 tablespoons milk, divided |
1/2 small cucumber, peeled and diced |
2 tablespoons chopped sweet onion |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1/4 teaspoon pepper |
1-1/2 teaspoons white vinegar |
1 teaspoon sugar |
Directions:
1. Place the potatoes in a saucepan and cover with water. Cover and bring to a boil; cook for 20-25 minutes or until very tender. 2. Drain well; mash with butter and 2 tablespoons of milk. Stir in cucumber, onion, salt and pepper. In a small bowl, stir vinegar and sugar into the remaining milk. Stir into potato mixture. Serve immediately. Yield: 2 servings. |
