Extra Ingredient - Mouth-Watering Mashed Potatoes

[sca_sethe]

Yet another first post, amoung the new people of the community. ~waves~

I like to experiment in cooking - usually adding a little more to something - and one of my favourite things to eat/experiment with is potatoes in all forms.

I know this sounds quite simplistic, but substituting sour cream instead of milk in mashed potatoes tastes so much better

I love using sour cream in mashed potatoes! So good. Or using red potatoes and leaving the skins on.

Also buttermilk is fabulous!

now I want mashed potatoes.

One of my favorite ways to do mashed potatoes is to beat them with cream cheese in addition to the milk and butter that are generally used. I add a handful of diced scallions, spoon them into a casserole dish, and bake them for 15-20 minutes at 350*. They get a little crispy on top, and stay hot for the duration of a meal. I haven't used sour cream, but I bet it is delicious. :)
