    List of Ingredients




    6 medium all-purpose potatoes (about 2 pounds)
    4 medium sweet potatoes (about 2 pounds)
    1/4 cup vegetable oil
    1 large onion, chopped
    4 tablespoons margarine or butter
    Salt
    Coarsely ground black pepper
    Parsley sprigs for garnish

    Recipe



    1. Peel all-purpose and sweet potatoes. Using an adjustable-blade slicer
    or sharp knife, thinly slice potatoes, keeping sliced white and sweet
    potatoes in separate piles.

    2. In 10-inch cast-iron skillet with oven-safe handle (or wrap handle
    with double thickness of foil), heat oil over medium heat. Add onion,
    cook until tender. Transfer to bowl.

    3. In same skillet, arrange white potatoes, overlapping them slightly.
    Sprinkle with onion, dot with 2 tablespoons margarine. Sprinkle with 3/4
    teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper.

    4. Arrange sweet-potato slices over white potatoes. Dot with remaining 2
    tablespoons margarine, sprinkle with 3/4 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon
    pepper.

    5. Cook layered potato mixture over medium heat 15 minutes or until
    bottom layer of potatoes is lightly browned. Meanwhile, preheat oven to
    450 degrees F.

    6. Place skillet on bottom rack in oven and bake 25 minutes or until
    potatoes are tender when pierced with knife, pressing potatoes down with
    pancake turner occasionally. To serve, loosen edge with pancake turner,
    carefully invert potatoes onto warm platter. Garnish with parsley
    sprigs, cut into wedges. Yield: 10 servings.
