You can substitute the sour cream in this recipe for plain Greek yogurt. It also adds creaminess and a delightful tang to this traditional side dish.

Ingredients

  • 1-1/2 pounds baking potatoes (such as russet or Yukon gold), peeled and quartered
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • 4 tablespoons milk
  • Salt
  • Freshly ground black pepper
  • Butter
  • Snipped chives and butter to garnish

Directions

  1. Place the potatoes into a large pot and cover with water. Sprinkle in a few pinches of salt, cover the pot and bring mixture to a boil over high heat.
  2. Boil the potatoes for 25 minutes, carefully drain and place back into the pot.
  3. Add the butter, sour cream and milk to the potatoes and beat the mixture with a large fork or potato masher. Season to taste with salt and freshly ground black pepper, and then continue to mash until reaching desired consistency.
  4. Transfer the mashed potatoes to a serving bowl and garnish with a pat of butter and the fresh snipped chives.
