Garlic & Chive Mashed Potatoes

I just happened to be roasting a whole chicken the day I made these mashed potatoes, so I decided to throw a bunch of garlic cloves in the pan to roast with it. You can use raw minced garlic if you prefer.

I also used the pan drippings in the potatoes to add more flavour. Even my littlest one liked these and she doesn't usually eat anything mashed, so that says something! Mmmm!

Mash it up!

Don't they look creamy and delicious?!


Garlic & Chive Mashed Potatoes
Makes 6 servings

Ingredients
  • 3lbs potatoes, peeled and cubed (I used white)
  • 5 cloves roasted garlic (or 3 cloves raw, minced)
  • 1 cup low fat sour cream
  • 3/4 cup chicken broth
  • 3 tablespoons chopped chives
  • salt and pepper to taste
Directions
  1. Boil the potatoes in a large pot of salted water for about 15 minutes or until tender. If using raw garlic, add it to the boiling water as well. Drain.
  2. Give the potatoes  mash with a potato masher then add all other ingredients. Keep mashing until the potatoes are as smooth as you like them.
  3. That's it. Mashed potatoes are easy, there's no reason not to make them more often!
