These are SO delicious and So easy! They are going to be my new go-to mashed potatoes. They're just like you get at a nice restaurant. And I can imagine they're super versatile- add more herbs and spices, different kinds of cheese, whatever. YUM!
Recipe by Valerie Mitchell - Allrecipes.com
Ingredients
- 8 medium red potatoes, quartered
- 3 cloves garlic, peeled
- 2 tablespoons butter or stick margarine
- 1/2 cup fat-free milk, warmed
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
Directions
- Place potatoes and garlic in a large saucepan; cover with water. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and simmer for 20-25 minutes or until the potatoes are very tender. Drain well. Add the butter, milk and salt; mash. Stir in Parmesan cheese.
*Okay- I only had 6 medium red potatoes, so I used a little less garlic and cheese. I also combined the Parmesan with some leftover Pecorino cheese I had, so I didn't add much salt. Then I forgot I was reducing and still added the 1/2 cup of milk- but I loved how creamy they turned out. I added the garlic cloves to the water like the recipe says to do, but I sliced them in half first. I'll try mincing them next time and adding after the boil to see how that changes the flavor. As you can see- it's a forgiving recipe! Play with it and make it perfect for your taste!
