Mashed Potatoes With Creme Fraiche and Chives image

These mashed potatoes are creamy, fluffy and slightly tangy thanks to the creme fraiche. A ricer is used on the potatoes to make them really smooth, but you could always mash by hand. Simple goodness! From Food & Wine. *Note: the mashed potatoes can be made ahead of time and kept at room temperature for up to 3 hours. Reheat before serving. (You may need to add a bit more milk.)*

These mashed potatoes were easy to make and turned out great! I used red potatoes, which I think gave them a really nice flavor. I also added a bit of butter and garlic powder to give them more flavor. Everyone at my dinner party loved them.

These mashed potatoes were a bit too rich for my taste. I think next time I'll use less crème fraiche and more milk.

I followed the recipe exactly and my mashed potatoes turned out lumpy. I'm not sure what I did wrong, but I was disappointed with the results.

These mashed potatoes were good, but not great. I found them to be a bit bland, even after adding extra salt and pepper. I think next time I'll try adding some roasted garlic or herbs to give them more flavor.

I've made mashed potatoes a hundred times, but this recipe is definitely a game-changer. The crème fraiche makes them so rich and velvety, and the chives add a lovely pop of flavor. I'll never go back to my old mashed potato recipe again!
