Yield Serves 6

Number Of Ingredients 5

3 tablespoons butter
4 large leeks (white and pale green parts only), quartered lengthwise, thinly sliced crosswise
1 1/2 pounds russet potatoes, peeled, cut into 1-inch pieces
2 1/4 cups water

Steps:

  • Melt butter in heavy large saucepan over medium heat. Add leeks; sauté until just beginning to color, about 15 minutes. Add potatoes and water. Season with salt. Increase heat to high; bring to boil. Cover; boil until potatoes are tender, about 20 minutes. Uncover; boil until almost all liquid evaporates, about 5 minutes.
  • Mash potatoes coarsely; mix in sour cream. Season with salt and pepper. (Can be made 2 hours ahead. Cover; let stand at room temperature. Rewarm over low heat, stirring.) Transfer to large bowl.

Overall, a good recipe for mashed potatoes. The leeks and sour cream added a nice touch. However, I found the instructions to be a bit unclear in some places.

These mashed potatoes were a bit too runny for my liking. I think I would have preferred a thicker consistency. Perhaps adding less milk would have helped.

These mashed potatoes were a bit too bland for my taste. I think I would have preferred a more robust flavor profile. Perhaps adding some garlic or herbs would have helped.
