SLOW COOKER MASHED POTATOES WITH SOUR CREAM AND CHIVES



Slow Cooker Mashed Potatoes With Sour Cream and Chives image

When stovetop and oven space is at a premium, the slow cooker can be a good friend. This hands-off, one-pot recipe makes creamy, slightly tangy mashed potatoes, and, unlike most mashed potato recipes, this one doesn't call for milk. The potatoes give off enough moisture as they braise, so just some extra butter and sour cream is enough to make them smooth. After mashing, the potatoes hold very well on warm for up to 3 hours: Just add the chives and give the potatoes a quick stir before serving.

Time 4h

1 cup sour cream

Tips:

  • To achieve a smooth and creamy texture, use a potato ricer or a food mill to mash the potatoes. This will remove any lumps and create a light and fluffy consistency.
  • Use Yukon Gold or Russet potatoes for the best results. These varieties have a high starch content, which helps to create a creamy and smooth mash.
  • Do not overcook the potatoes. Overcooked potatoes will become watery and lose their flavor.
  • Use a combination of milk, butter, cream, and sour cream to create a rich and flavorful mash. You can also add a splash of chicken broth or vegetable broth for extra flavor.
  • Season the mashed potatoes to taste with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. You can also add herbs like chives, parsley, or rosemary for extra flavor.
  • Serve the mashed potatoes immediately, or store them in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. You can also freeze the mashed potatoes for up to 2 months.
