Mashed potatoes 20/20

Mashed potatoes

Here's a quick and easy side dish that's low-cost and high-comfort. Just boil 2 pounds peeled and chopped potatoes in a pot filled with salted water for about 30 minutes. Drain and puree with a potato masher. Add 3/4 cup lukewarm milk, a bit of butter, heavy cream and a pinch of nutmeg. Mix well, and season to taste. This fluffy, buttery, warm and  wintry mash is a perfect accompaniment to short ribs, pork chops, seared steaks, burgers and sausages.
