Mashed potatoes is a really great recipe that is often relegated to the position
|
|
of side dish. This recipe is a spin of the classical mashed potatoes recipe
|
|
that's got itself more going on. You can serve this dish for a relatively light
|
|
meal, or you can also serve it as a side dish if you want to have a really
|
|
hearty meal.
|
|
|
|
## Ingredients
|
|
|
|
The quantities here are for about four adult portions. If you are planning on
|
|
eating this as a side dish, it might be more like 6-8 portions.
|
|
|
|
* 1kg potatoes
|
|
* 200ml milk*
|
|
* 200ml mayonnaise*
|
|
* ~100g cheese
|
|
* Garlic powder
|
|
* 12-16 strips of bacon
|
|
* Butter
|
|
* 3-4 green onions
|
|
* Black pepper
|
|
* Salt
|
|
|
|
\*You can play with the proportions depending on how creamy or dry you want the
|
|
mashed potatoes to be.
|
|
|
|
## Directions
|
|
|
|
1. Peel and cut the potatoes into medium sized pieces.
|
|
2. Put the potatoes in a pot with some water so that it covers the potatoes and
|
|
boil them for about 20-30 minutes, or until the potatoes are soft.
|
|
3. About ten minutes before removing the potatoes from the boiling water, cut
|
|
the bacon into little pieces and fry it.
|
|
4. Warm up the milk and mayonnaise.
|
|
5. Shred the cheese.
|
|
6. When the potatoes are done, remove all water from the pot, add the warm milk
|
|
and mayonnaise mix, add some butter, and mash with a potato masher or a
|
|
blender.
|
|
7. Add some salt, black pepper and garlic powder to taste and continue mashing
|
|
the mix.
|
|
8. Once the mix is somewhat homogeneous and the potatoes are properly mashed,
|
|
add the shredded cheese and fried bacon and mix a little.
|
|
9. Serve and top with chopped green onions.
