Ingredient Substitution Guide

Preparation

Step 1
Peel the potatoes and rinse well. Cut the potatoes lengthwise in half. Cut each half into 4 pieces. There should be about 4 cups.
Step 2
Put the potatoes in a saucepan with water to cover. Add salt and the onions and bring to a boil. Simmer 12 to 15 minutes or until the potatoes are tender. Drain. Put the potatoes through a food mill or potato ricer and place in a saucepan.
Step 3
Preheat the broiler.
Step 4
Heat the milk in a saucepan.
Step 5
Add the butter to the potatoes and stir with a wooden spoon until the butter is melted. Add the hot milk gradually, stirring with a wooden spoon. Add salt, pepper and the nutmeg. Blend well.
Step 6
Spoon the potatoes into an oven-proof serving dish (an oval dish measuring 1½ by 6½ by 9½ inches is suitable). Smooth the top of the potatoes with a spatula.
Step 7
Sprinkle with the cheese and place under the broiler until nicely browned.
