Perfect for family dinners, holiday feasts, or a comfort-filled meal, this recipe promises to deliver a creamy, savory delight that will have everyone coming back for seconds.

Ingredients:

5 potatoes
1000g
1/2 cup butter
110g
1 cup light sour cream
230g
1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese
40g

Instructions:

2. Cook the Potatoes:
- Place the potato chunks in a large pot and cover with cold water. Add a generous pinch of salt.
- Bring the water to a boil over high heat, then reduce the heat to medium and simmer for about 15-20 minutes or until the potatoes are tender when pierced with a fork.
3. Drain and Dry:
- Once the potatoes are tender, drain them in a colander and let them sit for a few minutes to allow excess moisture to evaporate.
4. Mash the Potatoes:
- Return the drained potatoes to the pot or place them in a large mixing bowl.
- Using a potato masher, mash the potatoes until smooth. For an extra smooth texture, you can use a potato ricer.
5. Add Butter:
- Add the butter to the hot, mashed potatoes and stir until fully melted and incorporated.
6. Mix in Sour Cream and Parmesan:
- Fold in the light sour cream and grated parmesan cheese until well combined. The mixture should be creamy and smooth.
- Season with salt and ground black pepper to taste. Adjust the seasoning as needed.
7. Final Touches:
- For an extra touch of flavor, you can garnish with additional grated parmesan and a sprinkle of fresh chopped parsley or chives (optional).
8. Serve:
- Serve the creamy parmesan potato mash hot as a delicious side dish to your favorite main courses.

Tips:

- Choose starchy potatoes like Russet or Yukon Gold for the creamiest mash.

- Boil the potatoes with their skins on to prevent them from absorbing too much water, then peel them after cooking for a fluffier texture.

- Ensure the butter is at room temperature or slightly melted before adding it to the potatoes to incorporate more smoothly.

- Warm the sour cream slightly before mixing it in to avoid cooling down the mash.

- For a smoother consistency, use a potato ricer or food mill instead of a masher.

- Season the mash with salt and pepper to taste, and consider adding a pinch of garlic powder for an extra burst of flavor.

- Top with a sprinkle of extra parmesan or fresh herbs like chives or parsley for added color and freshness.

This Creamy Parmesan Potato Mash is not only easy to prepare but also a sure way to impress your guests with its rich, savory flavor. The combination of butter, sour cream, and parmesan cheese guarantees a smooth, indulgent texture that pairs beautifully with a variety of main courses. Enjoy this comforting dish and add a touch of gourmet to your meals.
