2½ to 3 lbs white potatoes, peeled and cubed
1 tsp salt, divided
1 medium onion, finely chopped
½ lb fresh mushrooms, chopped
3 tbsp butter, divided
½ cup sour cream
¼ tsp pepper

In a large pot, cover potatoes with water and add ½ tsp salt. Bring to a boil and cook until tender, about 15–20 minutes. Drain well.
While potatoes cook, melt 1 tbsp butter in a skillet over medium heat. Sauté onion and mushrooms with ½ tsp salt until soft and lightly browned, about 8–10 minutes.
Mash drained potatoes with remaining 2 tbsp butter, sour cream, pepper, and Parmesan until smooth and creamy.
Fold in the sautéed mushroom and onion mixture.
