I love this upside-down potato, onion. This is always a big hit whenever I serve this to my family and friends. We love to pair this up with meat. The name itself described this dish pretty well because before serving, you have to turn the potato onion upside down. If you have not tried this yet, you should very soon! This is perfect, and the crowd approved.
To make this upside-down potato, the onion you need only a few simple ingredients. For the cheese, you can use two cups of your preferred cheese. As for me, I used a combination of grated mozzarella, crumbled feta, and grated gruyere. Assemble and pop in the oven for a few minutes and voila! You have the best upside-down potato onion! It’s the perfect combo of onions and potatoes.
