    Title: Two-Ingredient Mashed Potatoes
    Categories: Five, Potatoes, Dairy
    Yield: 4 Servings

    2 lb Russet potatoes
    Salt & fresh ground pepper
    1/4 c Sour cream or full-fat Greek
    - yoghurt

    Peel the potatoes and cut them into 1" pieces. Put them
    in a large saucepan, add 2 tablespoons salt, and cover
    them by 1" of cold water.

    Bring to a boil over high heat, reduce to medium and let
    cook until piercing with a fork yields no resistance,
    about 10 minutes.

    Reserve 1 cup of the cooking water, then drain the
    potatoes and return them to the pot. Mash the potatoes
    over low heat using a potato masher or wooden spoon
    until completely mashed.

    Vigorously stir in the reserved potato water, adding 1
    tablespoon at a time until the potatoes are smooth and
    come together (you will use about 1/2 cup). Stir in the
    sour cream, then season to taste with salt and pepper.

    UDD NOTE: I add a tablespoon or more garlic granules
    to the cooking water for an added depth of flavour in
    the finished product.

    occasionally to coat.
