Red Potatoes: Restaurant Style Garlic Mashed Red Potatoes
Perfect with a good steak!
Ingredients
- 1-1/2 lbs. small red potatoes (about 8), quartered, skin left on
- 1-1/2 t. kosher salt, divided
- ¼ t. course black pepper
- 1 t. garlic powder
- ½ c. low-fat sour cream
- ¼ c. unsalted butter, cut into pieces
- ½ c. grated Parmesan cheese
Instructions
Place potatoes in a large pot or Dutch oven. Add enough water to cover. Stir in 1 t. kosher salt. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat, cover and simmer about 20-25 minutes.
Meanwhile, place the remaining 1/2 t. kosher salt, pepper, garlic powder, sour cream, Parmesan cheese and butter in a large bowl.
When potatoes pierce easily with a paring knife, remove from heat and drain. Add potatoes to the bowl with the other ingredients (can pre-mash with a potato mixer if you’d like, before mixing with electric mixer). Using an electric mixer, mix on medium speed, until smooth.
NOTE: Potatoes will be somewhat stiff. If you want to thin a bit more, add a little milk until desired consistency.
