"Smooth, creamy, mashed potatoes seasoned to perfection and cooked with milk, butter, and cheese. The perfect dinner side dish." Let me first start off by saying I'm extremely excited to post this recipe for my followers here on my blog. My all time favorite side dish recipe and a must-make for Thanksgiving.
To begin with this recipe, we must prepare a few ingredients. You can have smooth and creamy mashed potatoes using 10 ingredients and 5 steps. Here is how you cook that.
The ingredients needed to make Smooth and creamy mashed potatoes:
- Prepare 2 large potatoes
- Take 1 onion grated
- Take 1/2 tsp garlic paste
- Prepare 1/2 tsp ginger paste
- Get 1/2 tsp turmeric powder
- Take 1/2 tsp black pepper
- Make ready 1/2 cup finely chopped coriander
- Get to taste Salt
- Get 2 tbsp butter
- Get 2 tbsp heavy cream
Any type of potato can be mashed, but for the trifecta of perfection, fluffy, smooth, and creamy, one potato reigns supreme: the Yukon Gold. Yukon Golds deliver on the creamy factor. Their mashed consistency is already creamy—even before you add butter and milk—and they have a nice golden. These potatoes were creamy, smooth, and so flavorful and they had just a touch of butter - how great is that!?!
Instructions to make Smooth and creamy mashed potatoes:
- Wash and peel your potatoes. In a sauce pan add water and some salt (I add a little salt when boiling because I feel it gives the potatoes a richer taste) add the potatoes, bring them to a boil until they are well cooked, a fork or wooden skewer can easily go through. Drain excess water and set aside to allow to cool.
- In another pan, (or the same one) add in your butter, once it melts, add the grated onions(using grated onions helps in achieving a smooth mash at the end) sauté until they just start to become translucent. Add in garlic-ginger pastes and some salt, mix then add all the ground/powdered spices and the coriander. Give it a good mix then turn off the heat.
- Mash up the potatoes using a potato masher or a spatula. For a smoother texture you can pass the mashed potatoes through a sieve using the help of spatula/spoon to apply some pressure (if you do this, make sure to scrape off the potatoes on the outside of the sieve) I didn't do the whole seiving thing though, I was too hungry😂
- At this point, you can transfer the onion mixture into a bowl, add the mash pototoes plus the cream. Give it a good mix
- Serve.. Enjoy😋
I found this recipe in my The Best Light Recipe cookbook from the editors of Cook's Illustrated I love this book because they Mash the potatoes using a hand masher until creamy and smooth. Compared to yellow mashed potatoes, the russets were good, and very fluffy, but just not quiiiiiite as creamy or flavorful. Red and white potatoes were EASY. Mash your potatoes quickly and easily - great for big batches when you're serving a lot of people. Slightly smoother and fluffier than potatoes.
