Total Time: 1 hour hr 15 minutes mins
4 medium onions , red, white, or 1 of each 4 large potatoes 50 g (¼ cup ) butter A few handfuls of grated gruyere cheese , as many as you dare
In a covered saucepan, caramelize the onions in half of the butter over a very low heat, for about an hour.
Meanwhile, chop and boil the potatoes for about 20 minutes, until soft.
Drain the potatoes.
Take a few spoonfuls of onion from the pan and set aside for the topping.
Use a potato ricer to rice the potatoes into the saucepan with the remaining caramelized onions.
Add the rest of the butter and put back onto a very low heat as you stir the potatoes, onions and butter together.
Once incorporated, add cheese and keep stirring as it melts through.
The final texture should be smooth but sticky, with the potatoes coming away from the pan easily.
Top with the reserved onions and serve.
