(a little extra oil for brushing on midway during baking)

Scrub the potatoes, cut them into chunks, and boil them until soft. Drain and mash.

Combine mashed potatoes with butter, salt, pepper, and onion. Mix well. Using a spoon and/or rubber spatula, sculpt a handsome crust with an even handsomer edge in your pre-buttered pie pan.

Bake 45 min. Halfway through the baking, lightly brush the entire top surface with oil. It is not necessary to cool the crust before filling and rebaking.
