If you love fluffy mashed potatoes, this is the way to get them that way. So easy and so good.

 

INGREDIENTS:

  • 2 1/2 lbs. Baking Potatoes, peeled and cut into same size chunks
  • Salt, for the boiling water
  • 8 tablespoons Unsalted Butter (or more because I like More if you know what I mean) (smile),     cut into small pieces, at room temperature
  • 1/2 cup Heavy Cream, brought to a boil
  • Freshly ground White Pepper and Salt adjusted to taste
  • Freshly ground Nutmeg, just a pinch
  • 1 tablespoon fresh Parsley, chopped to use for garnish

    Cooking The Potatoes:

    1. In a saucepan, cook the potatoes in lightly salted water to cover, until tender. Drain well.

    2. Mash the potatoes through a food mill, or with a potato masher, into a stainless steel bowl.

    3. In a small saucepan, heat butter and cream until butter has melted. Add salt, pepper and nutmeg.

    4. Pour the heated cream over the potatoes and mash or whip until very smooth. Spoon the mashed potatoes into warmed serving bowl and sprinkle with chopped parsley.

    Sometimes, I like to add garlic to my mashed potatoes. In case you would like to try that, when cooking the potatoes add 1/2 cup chopped raw garlic to them. This give a wonderfully different taste.
