Instructions

  1. Place the potatoes, garlic and 2 teaspoons of salt in a large pot and cover with cold water by 1 inch. Place over medium high heat and bring to a boil. Once the potatoes reach a boil, cook for 10 to 12 minutes, or until fork tender. Drain, then immediately transfer them to a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment.
  2. Add the sour cream, vegetable broth, butter, remaining ½ teaspoon salt and black pepper. Mix until the potatoes have broken down and the mixture reaches your desired consistency.
  3. Serve warm and top with fresh parsley, if desired.

Notes

  • Storage: Kept in an airtight container in the fridge, these mashed potatoes will keep for a few days. They can be reheated on the stovetop or in the microwave. You might need to add a little broth or water to loosen the potatoes and make them creamy.
  • Make Ahead Tips: You can chop the potatoes up to 3 days in advance and store them in the fridge in an airtight container with water. When it's time to cook the mashed potatoes, drain the potatoes and cook as usual.
  • Substitutes: For best results, follow the recipe as is. However you can leave out the butter if you'd like or substitute low fat milk for the sour cream.
