Simple Creamy Mashed Potatoes
Ingredients
- 12-14 Medium size potatoes (russet or yukon gold)
- 1+1/2 cups Whole milk at room temperature
- 1 cup Sour cream at room temperature
- 8 tbsps Butter melted
- Salt to taste
- Black pepper to taste
Instructions
- Start by peeling your potatoes. I like to have a bowl with cold water on the side as I peel the potatoes so that once they are peeled I can let them sit in the water and not turn brown.
- Place a large pot with water over medium-high heat, bring it to a boil and add some salt. Once the water is boiling then add the potatoes and let them boil for 20-30 minutes or until a fork can easily pierce the potatoes.
- Strain the water once the potatoes are done, move them over to a mixing bowl. Mash the potatoes using a potato smasher. When everything is mashed I move unto the hand mixer and quickly stir it.
- Afterwards I start by pouring in my ingredients, I start with the butter and the sour cream then the milk, which I add gradually, then the salt and black pepper. Keep in mind I mix everything together with the hand mixer in between adding the ingredients.
- Mix everything together until you get a creamy and well blended texture. Serve and enjoy!
