Jenna. Day 11. Mashed Potato Goodness.

January 11th, 2010

This is the inside of my mixing bowl.  Tonight I made the best mashed potatoes known to man.  And here is the recipe.

8 med. to large butter gold potatoes, peeled and quartered
6 large carrots, peeled and cut in half

Put veggies into vegetable steamer for 45 mins.  If you don’t have a steamer, shame on you.  I guess you could boil the veggies but I strongly recommend you jump into your car and go buy a vegetable steamer.

Once the veggies are steamed/cooked, place into a mixing bowl.  Add:
1 c milk (I used skim.)
4 T (or more if desired) butter
S&P to taste

Mix.  Add sour cream or more milk if texture is too tough.  I like mine somewhere between potato soup and roasted potatoes.

This is slap-yo-mama, get-out-of-bed-in-the-middle-of-the-night-to-eat-straight-out-of-the-bowl-with-your-fingers good.
