Categories: Vegetables- potatoes

Ingredients

  • Garlic salt
  • 3 medium to large potatoes, rinsed, peeled, cut into 1 1/2-inch pieces
  • 1/2 to 1 cup sour cream
  • 3 Tbsp. butter
  • Ground black or white pepper, to taste

Directions

  1. Bring a large pot filled three-quarters full of water to a boil. Add pinch of garlic salt and potatoes and cook for 12 minutes. Add the cauliflower and cook an additional 8 minutes. This will allow the potatoes and cauliflower to finish cooking at the same time.
  2. Drain vegetables in a colander. Put the potatoes and cauliflower back in the empty pot and put the pot back on the burner you were just using. The residual heat will help them dry out. Let rest 2 to 3 minutes.
  3. Add sour cream, butter, garlic, salt and pepper to the pot and mash with a potato masher or electric mixer. Add more sour cream and/butter until the mixture reaches your desired texture. Season to taste with salt, pepper and garlic salt.
