Oven-Cooked Potatoes with Onions & Cream

This is definitely my mother’s special dish: I always remember her making it to go with the baked ham for Christmas. Serve these deliciously soft and very creamy potatoes with a simple roast meat, slices of baked ham or a roast chicken. They are more attractive as a partner to simply cooked meats and might be too heavy with a rich dish, although this depends on your own taste. You could easily add fresh chopped herbs to the potatoes before cooking.
