- Cook the potatoes in water until soft, about 25 minutes. Drain the water and transfer back to the pot.
- Add butter, milk and salt. Mix well.
- Mash the potatoes or use a potato ricer for a smoother texture.
Fried onions:
- Sauté the onions with oil in a non-stick pan
over medium heat for about 15 minutes, until they are dark golden brown.
Gravy:
- Sift the turkey drippings to ensure a smooth texture and set aside.
- In a non-stick pan, sauté the flour with butter for 3 minutes until it turns dark brown.
- Add the turkey drippings and hot water,
stirring continuously. Cook until the sauce thickens, about 5 minutes.
Serving: Arrange the fried onions and gravy in separate dishes next
to the mashed potatoes dish.
