Potatoes
- 6 medium potatoes, peeled and cut into cubes
Sauce
- 1 packet Lipton onion soup mix
- 1/2 cup butter, melted
- 1/2 cup water
- Salt and pepper, to taste
Instructions
- Prepare Potatoes: Peel and cut 6 medium potatoes into cubes, then place them at the bottom of your slow cooker to form the base of the dish.
- Mix Sauce: In a separate bowl, combine 1/2 cup melted butter, 1/2 cup water, and 1 packet of Lipton onion soup mix. Stir well until the soup mix is fully dissolved to create a flavorful sauce.
- Coat Potatoes: Pour the butter and onion soup mixture evenly over the cubed potatoes, ensuring all pieces are well coated for maximum flavor absorption.
- Season: Add salt and pepper to taste, then gently stir everything together to distribute the seasoning evenly throughout the potatoes.
- Cook: Cover the slow cooker with its lid and cook on low heat for 4-5 hours, or until the potatoes are fork-tender, allowing the flavors to meld beautifully.
- Serve: Once cooked, give the potatoes a good stir to mix any settled sauce, then serve warm as a comforting side dish.
Notes
- For a richer flavor, you can substitute butter with clarified butter or add a splash of cream before serving.
- If you prefer crispier edges, cook uncovered for the last 15-20 minutes of cooking time.
- This recipe can be doubled easily for larger gatherings, just ensure your slow cooker is large enough.
- Leftovers can be refrigerated for up to 3 days and reheated gently on the stovetop or microwave.
