Preparation

Step 1
Place potatoes directly in microwave oven. Cook at 100 percent power in a high-power oven for 16 minutes.
Step 2
While potatoes are cooking, combine apples and onions, if using, in a 2½-quart souffle dish with a tight-fitting lid. Remove potatoes from oven. Cook apples, covered, for 8 minutes if not using onions, or 14 minutes with onions.
Step 3
While apples are cooking and potatoes are still hot, use a paring knife to slip the skin from the potatoes. Pass potatoes through a food mill fitted with the medium disk.
Step 4
Remove dish from oven and uncover. Pass apples through the food mill into the potatoes. Using a fork, combine the potatoes and apples until mixture is smooth. Stir in salt and pepper with the fork.
Step 5
Place mixture in 2½-quart souffle dish. Cook, covered, for 5 minutes to heat.
