Gourmet Mashed Potatoes (Mascarpone Potato Puree) image

This is the way I make mashed potatoes to accompany a special meal. My family goes crazy over these creamy mashed potatoes and no matter how much I make, I never seem to have any left over. This is fabulous with beautiful cuts of steaks. You could possibly sub cream cheese mixed with sour cream for the mascarpone cheese, although I have never made them this way.. There is, of course, a recipe for mascarpone cheese substitute here on Zaar.

I'm allergic to dairy, so I substituted the mascarpone cheese with vegan cream cheese. The mashed potatoes were still delicious!

I followed the recipe exactly, but my mashed potatoes turned out lumpy. Not sure what went wrong.

Not bad, but not the best mashed potatoes I've ever had. The mascarpone cheese was a bit overpowering for my taste.

I've made mashed potatoes a hundred times, but this recipe takes them to the next level. The mascarpone adds a richness and creaminess that I've never tasted before.
