Mom'S Smashed Mashed Potatoes

• 1 1/2 pounds baking potatoes, peeled and cut into 1-inch pieces
• 1 1/2 pounds Yukon gold potatoes, peeled and cut into 1-inch pieces
• 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
• 2 cups chopped onion
• 1 teaspoon kosher salt, divided
• 1/2 teaspoon ground white pepper
• 1 1/4 cups 2% reduced-fat milk
• 1/4 cup unsalted butter

1. Place potatoes in a large saucepan; cover with water to 2 inches above potatoes. Bring to a boil; reduce heat, and simmer 15 minutes or until tender. Drain. Return potatoes to pan. Mash potatoes with a potato masher until coarsely mashed (not smooth).
2. Heat a medium nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add oil to pan; swirl to coat. Add onion; cook 10 minutes or until golden brown, stirring occasionally. Stir in 1/4 teaspoon salt and white pepper.
3. Heat milk and butter in a small saucepan over medium heat until butter is melted. Add onion mixture, remaining 3/4 teaspoon salt, and milk mixture to mashed potatoes, stirring to combine.
