Mashed Potatoes

These are so good because they are so easy to make. Potatoes, butter, heavy cream, sour cream and salt and pepper. Heavenly!

2.5 pounds of russet potatoes
1 stick unsalted butter

½ cup heavy cream
½ cup sour cream
½ Tablespoon salt
½ teaspoon white pepper

Serves 3

One 14 ounce Filet Mignon
Vegetable oil cooking spray
Steak Seasoning Salt

1.) Cut the potatoes in cubes and transfer to a large pot. Add enough cold water to cover the potatoes by 1 inch and bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce the heat to medium and simmer for 15 to 20 minutes or until the potatoes are fork-tender. Be careful not to overcook. Immediately drain in a colander.

2.) Meanwhile, in a saucepan, combine the butter and cream over medium heat and cook until the butter melts. Do not boil. Set aside.

3.) Transfer the drained potatoes to a bowl. Gradually add the sour cream and mix, until combined by hand using a potato masher.

4.) Slowly add the hot cream and butter mixture while slowly mixing. The potatoes should not be completely smooth.
