Ingredients
-
* 1 lb. Red Potatoes, skins left on and cut into chunks
* 4 cloves Garlic, each cut in two
* 1/4 cup Butter, salted
* 1/4 cup Milk, 2%
* 1/8 cup Sour Cream, full fat
* Fresh-ground Sea Salt and Black Pepper, to taste [NOT included in nutritional information!!!]
Directions
1. Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add potatoes and garlic cloves, and cook until tender but still firm, about 10 minutes. Drain, and return to stove-top over low heat.
2. Combine the butter, milk, sour cream, salt, and pepper in a microwave-safe bowl, and heat over medium heat for a minute or two, just so you're not adding cold ingredients to the hot mashed potatoes. Don't heat too high or too long, or you'll curdle the dairy!
3. Add the warmed dairy and spice mixture to the pot of potatoes on the stove-top. Mash together by hand until smooth and creamy. (It's nice to have a few small lumps, so I don't recommend beating with an electric mixer for this recipe - it tends to get 'gluey', for lack of a better word!)
4. Makes 4 'servings', each about two 1/3-cup scoops (2/3 cup each serving). Enjoy! :)
