Butter-Browned Potatoes with Onion and Mustard
Potatoes and onions are a ho-hum combination, but in this recipe, inspired by classic French pommes de terre à la Lyonnaise, the humble ingredients become a fantastic dish. The secret: brown the potatoes and onions in butter so they take on a wonderful nutty flavor. This rustic side pairs deliciously with everything from seafood to meat, or simply serve them with eggs. To jump-start the cooking process, we partially cook the potatoes in the microwave, then finish them in the skillet. Be sure to rinse them well before microwaving; this removes some of the excess starch that will cause the slices to stick together.

Cover and cook, stirring occasionally, until the onion is soft and lightly browned, about 12 minutes, adjusting the heat as needed so the onion cooks evenly.
