Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Scrub the potatoes and place them in the oven to bake until tender, about an hour.

  2. Step 2

    While the potatoes are baking, saute the onion until it is golden brown in one tablespoon of the butter or oil. Set aside.

  3. Step 3

    When the potatoes are done, split each in half lengthwise. Scoop all the insides into a mixing bowl, taking care not to break the skins. Using a fork, mash the potato with the remaining butter or oil. Season the mixture with salt and pepper and fold in the onions.

  4. Step 4

    Spoon the filling back into the skins of the potatoes, making eight filled halves. Mound the potato filling in each of the skins and lightly trace a pattern on the top of the potato with the tines of a fork. Set aside until shortly before serving time.

  5. Step 5

    Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Place the potatoes in a baking dish and place in the oven 15 to 20 minutes, until heated through and lightly browned on top. Serve at once.
