I think that mashed potatoes are an ultimate comfort food. At my house they always accompany warm and cozy foods like turkey, or pot roast. But I want to eat them way more often than that! You can change them up and add different things to them to make them better accompany what you are having for dinner. I don't think I have ever measured the amount of salt, pepper, butter, or milk that I add to my mashed potatoes, but I did today. Please adjust if you find it necessary. Mashed potatoes are easy to make just start with less milk because you can always add more.
Ingredients:
- About 5 Medium Russet Potatoes
- 1 teaspoon Minced Garlic
- 3/4 Cup Shredded Cheddar Cheese
- Salt and Pepper to taste
- About 1/3 Cup Milk (start with a little less)
- 2 Tablespoons Butter
- French Fried Onions
Serves about 6
Wash and peel the potatoes. Cut into chunks and place them in water. Bring water to boil and cook until fork tender. Drain. Place in large bowl and add butter, milk, and garlic. Using electric hand mixer beat until smooth. Add more milk if needed. Add in cheddar cheese and a handful of French Fried Onions and mix throughout. Top with a little more cheese and a couple of onions and serve!
I served this with Cranberry Pork Tenderloin, green beans, and Homemade Cranberry Relish.
