Mashed potatoes are a timeless and cherished side dish that embodies the simple, comforting pleasures of home-cooked comfort food. Made from boiled or steamed potatoes that are then mashed, typically with butter, milk, salt, and pepper, this dish transforms the humble spud into a creamy and fluffy delight. Mashed potatoes are a versatile accompaniment, pairing perfectly with a wide range of main courses, from roast chicken to hearty stews. Their smooth texture and buttery richness offer a perfect contrast to gravies and sauces. Whether served as a creamy bed for saucy dishes or shaped into inviting mounds with a well in the center for a pool of gravy, mashed potatoes are a timeless classic that evokes feelings of warmth and nostalgia, making them a staple at holiday feasts and everyday meals alike.
INGREDIENTS
- 4 or 5 small potatoes
- 1 head of garlic
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 2 tsp butter (25g)
- 50 ml of cream
DIRECTIONS
- Boil the potatoes, always with their skins on, in a pot with plenty of water, until they are pierced with a knife and come out and come in easily.
- While we are going to cut the top part of the garlic head and put it in an aluminum foil with a little oil and salt, make a ball and take it to the air fryer at 180C for 15 minutes.
- When the potatoes are ready, they are peeled and put in a container and with the help of a fork or a mashed potato, mash the potatoes and add salt and pepper to taste.
- The cream is also added and continues mixing.
