Boil the potatoes in salted water for 15 minutes or so till they are tender to the fork.
Drain and let cool. DON'T OVERCOOK, the potatoes will fall apart.

|

Add the onions to the pan and cook till tender Add some black pepper while the onions are cooking. |

Meanwhile cut the potatoes into small chunks. |
