Making a good, tasty, creamy mashed potato for a meaty meal can be challenging if you keep kosher, since most decent recipes rely on a good helping of milk.
What's more, I was looking for a mashed potato recipe that actually had a delicious flavor of its own, not the flavorless mush a lot of people make do with.
Then I found this - and it was glorious:
Ingredients:
- 1-1.5 pounds potatoes - unpeeled
- 2 cloves minced garlic
- 1/2 cup of chicken broth
- 1 tbsp. olive oil
- 1/2 tsp. salt
- 1/4 tsp. pepper
Method
- Cut potatoes into cubes of roughly equal size - do not peel the potatoes!
- Boil a pot of water and add potatoes
- Leave to cook 30-40 mins - until they get soft enough to easily pierce with a fork
- Drain potatoes
- Heat chicken broth, then add to potatoes together with all other ingredients
- Mash until smooth and creamy
