Marvelous Mashed Potatoes

Here is a recipe for one of the must-have side dishes with turkey, MASHED POTATOES!!! Note that this recipe isn't for anyone counting calories. This dish is big on flavor and won't disappoint.

Ingredients:


4 pounds golden creamer potatoes, peeled and cut into quarters
1 bay leaf
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 cups heavy cream
3 tablespoons unsalted butter
3 tablespoons sour cream (optional)
2 tablespoons chopped chives (optional)


Directions:

Put the potatoes into a large pot, add the bay leaf, 2 tablespoons salt, and cover with cold water. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat and cook until the potatoes are tender, about 20 minutes. Drain them well and remove the bay leaf. Meanwhile, heat the cream and butter in a small saucepan. Put the potatoes through a ricer or food mill into a bowl. Add the hot cream and season with salt and pepper. Add the chives and sour cream, if desired, and mix together with a spoon. Enjoy!
