These are really, really good. I used vidalia onions and russet potatoes. I will reduce the amount of butter next time, but that is the only change I would make. Thanks wicked cook....terrific recipe. Made for the Auzzie/NZ Recipe Swap #29.

I followed this recipe as written, and it was very easy to make, and turned out perfectly. I served it as a side to our main meal.

Simple to make with ingredients that I always have on hand. Pukekohe is the Maori word for mahogany and, also, is a community in NZ. Just had to look up that word. Thanks wicked cook 46 for posting. Made for Chow Hounds for ZWT5.
