Creamy Holiday Mashed Potatoes
This mashed potato recipe certainly isn't low fat. In our house it's reserved for holidays only :)
Serves 6, double or triple quantities as necessary.
Ingredients
- 6 medium potatoes, peeled and cut into chunks.
- ¼ cup cream
- ¼ cup real butter
- ¼ cup sour cream
- ¼ cup milk
- 3 peeled cloves of garlic (optional)
- Chopped fresh chives of parsley (optional)
- Salt and pepper to taste
Directions
- Place potatoes in large saucepan and cover with water, add a little salt and peeled whole garlic cloves if using.
- Bring to a boil and cook over medium or high heat for approximately 15 to 20 minutes or until tender.
- Drain, discard garlic and return to pan.
- Add the milk and beat potatoes with electric mixer until creamy.
- Gradually add a little of each of the ingredients and keep mixing.
- Depending on your preference you may want to add a little extra or less sour cream.
- Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Finally add the chopped chives or parsley if using and stir well.
- Serve immediately.
Note
- For roasted garlic potatoes use the same recipe as above but do not add garlic cloves to potatoes while boiling.
- Instead crush the garlic cloves and sauté for about 1 minute over very low heat in a little olive oil.
- Add mixture to potatoes once cooked and mix with all other ingredients.
