No Milk (Dairy) Mashed Potatoes
If you like mashed potatoes, but cannot use milk and butter this recipe is one that everyone seems to like, especially if you like garlic. The key is one strange ingredient, mayonnaise. Mayo seems to give you the mouth feel of butter giving you the experience of regular creamy mashed potatoes. The recipe is not real precise, but add the ingredients slowly and your taste buds will tell you when you have the right amounts.
Ingredients
- Russet potatoes (one per person, plus one or two for the pot)
- Salt
- Pepper
- Chopped Garlic
- Mayonnaise
Directions
- Cut up and boil potatoes until soft (about twenty to thirty minutes.)
- Drain well (dry potatoes make better mashed potatoes).
- Add chopped garlic (As much as you like and it can be the type out of a jar. For a family size batch start with two to three teaspoons.)
- Add mayonnaise (Remember this is for texture mostly, it does add some taste, so my preference is not to use salad dressing. Start with a couple of big tablespoons of mayonnaise, for a family sized batch, and work my way up from there.)
- Whip with hand or stand mixer until smooth.
- Salt and Pepper to taste.
