Sour Cream Mashed Potatoes
Sour cream mashed potatoes are a delightful twist on the classic side dish. The sour cream adds a rich and tangy flavor to the potatoes. It also makes them extra creamy, creating a delicious side dish that goes well with many meals, whether it's a regular dinner or a special holiday feast.
Ingredients
- 2 lbs (1kg) starchy/mealy potatoes (like Russet, Idaho)
- 1/4 cup milk

- 6 tablespoons chopped chives
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- salt and pepper (to taste)
Instructions

Peel and cook the potatoes until fork-tender.

Mash the potatoes (while hot). You can use a regular potato masher or potato ricer (the potatoes will be slightly more fluffy). Do not mash them for too long or they will be gummy.

Add all the other ingredients and stir until well combined (but do not stir for too long). It's important to add the other ingredients while the potatoes are still hot.
