Savory Southern Mashed Potatoes!
Mmm! Everyone at 12 Oaks loves eating, especially mashed potatoes! What a great side dish as fall rolls in. I can't take credit for this recipe because Paula Deen gave it to me! Here is the recipe we like to use for delicious mashed potatoes!
Coming-Home Mashed Potatoes
Ingredients:
1 ½ lbs red potatoes, washed and quartered (skins left on)
½ teaspoon salt
4 tablespoons butter
1 tablespoon milk
1 teaspoon sugar
Zest of 1 lemon
Salt and white pepper to taste
Fresh parsley, chopped for garnish
(serves 4)
Directions:
Add potatoes to a large saucepan and add water until potatoes are covered. Add salt. Bring to a boil and reduce heat and simmer, covered until done. (Approximately 15 minutes or until a fork can easily be poked through them). Drain water and set aside, covered.
In a small sauce pan, warm milk, sugar and butter together until butter is melted.
Add warm sweet milk and butter mixture to the potatoes and mash, using a potato masher or hand held mixer until desired consistency is obtained. Stir in lemon zest. Salt and pepper to taste. Garnish with chopped fresh Parsley.
