Time 1h

Number Of Ingredients 6

4 pounds Yukon Gold potatoes, peeled and halved (or quartered, if large)
1 small butternut squash (2 pounds), peeled, seeded, and cut into 2-inch chunks (6 cups)
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
6 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 cup half-and-half

Steps:

  • In a large pot, combine potatoes and squash; cover with salted water by 1 inch. Bring to a boil; reduce heat, and simmer until potatoes and squash are easily pierced with the tip of a paring knife, about 20 minutes.
  • Drain in a large colander; return potatoes and squash to the pot. Stir over medium heat until dry, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove from heat.
  • In a small saucepan, melt butter over medium heat; add garlic, and cook until fragrant, about 2 minutes. Add half-and-half; bring to a simmer. Pour over potatoes and squash; season generously with salt and pepper. Mash with a potato masher until smooth and creamy. Serve immediately.

I'm not a big fan of squash, but I loved this dish! The squash was perfectly cooked and the combination of flavors was amazing. I will definitely be making this recipe again.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover mashed potatoes. I had some leftover mashed potatoes from Thanksgiving dinner and I made this dish the next day. It was a great way to use up the leftovers and it tasted just as good as the original mashe

I wanted to make this dish a little more spicy, so I added a teaspoon of chili powder. It gave the mash a nice kick! I will definitely be making this recipe again with chili powder.

I only had one squash, so I added a cup of carrots to the recipe. It turned out great! The carrots added a nice sweetness and crunch to the mash. I will definitely be making this recipe again with carrots.

I don't have a food processor, so I mashed the potatoes and squash by hand. It took a little longer, but it was still worth it. The mash was just as delicious as if I had used a food processor.

I'm allergic to nightshades, so I made this recipe with sweet potatoes instead of potatoes. It was a great substitute! The sweet potatoes added a nice sweetness and creaminess to the mash. I will definitely be making this recipe again.

I made this recipe gluten-free by using gluten-free flour. It turned out great! The mash was light and fluffy and the squash added a nice sweetness. I will definitely be making this recipe again.

I'm on a low-carb diet, so I made this dish with cauliflower instead of potatoes. It turned out really well! The cauliflower gave the mash a nice texture and the squash added a touch of sweetness. I'll definitely be making this again.
