My boys love my mashed potato, I can't recommend it if you are dieting though...I do occasionally make different variations of mashed potato by adding some sweet potato or pumpkin, or even left over veges......I like leaving the skins on too if they are clean enough....it is a good source of fibre and the kids don't even realise your adding another source of fibre to their diet.
For a side dish for 5 adults I used the following:
steamed potato with peel left on
3 to 4 large spoons of sour cream...this was very runny as
(I used my new homemade sour cream, but I have only ever added store bought in the past)
butter..about 2 tablespoons of butter......(

Vegeta (seasoning) I used about 2 teaspoons..but add according to taste....You can buy Vegeta in many sizes.

Over the cooked potato: clockwise from the date stamp.....
Vegeta seasoning, sour cream, butter |
Then roughly mash all the engredients together...I sometimes do a smooth mash, but when I leave the skins on....just a rough quick mash is great. You will notice there is no milk in here...but it is so yummy! be careful adding the sour cream, use it gradually like you would for milk.
Everyone loves my Mashed Potato!
If you decide to have a go at making it,
come back and let me know what you think of it.
Tomorrow is another day, and I plan to make Buttermilk scones, which will be a first....
If you make my mashed potato, do come back and tell us about it.
Have you ever made Buttermilk Scones? What would you make if you had just over a cup of Buttermilk?
I loved the feedback when I asked what to make with the cream...so I'm asking again....lol
Hope everyone had a lovely weekend.
