Number Of Ingredients 5

5 4- to 5-inch russet or Idaho potatoes, washed well but not peeled
4 tablespoons (1/2 stick) unsalted butter, softened
1/3 cup milk
1 cup (8 ounces) small-curd cottage cheese or ricotta cheese
Coarse salt and freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Place the potatoes in a large pot and cover with water. Bring to a boil and cook until the potatoes are tender, about 45 minutes. Insert a knife into the center of the potatoes to ensure accurate soft tenderness; the potatoes should be soft but not falling apart. Drain. When cool enough to handle, hold each potato in a clean kitchen towel and peel off the skin. Cut into chunks. (If in a hurry, peel the potatoes first and cut into small chunks for boiling.)
  • Add the butter and milk to the same pot and place over the lowest heat to melt the butter and warm the milk. Return the potatoes to the pot and mash until almost smooth. Add the cottage cheese and stir to combine. Season with salt and pepper. Stir briskly before serving.

These mashed potatoes are a good base recipe. You can add your own herbs and spices to taste.

These mashed potatoes are just okay. They're not bad, but they're not great either.

I added some roasted garlic to my mashed potatoes and they were amazing! It's a great way to add extra flavor.

I love that this recipe uses skins-on potatoes. It gives the mashed potatoes a more rustic flavor.

These mashed potatoes are the perfect comfort food. They're so creamy and cheesy, and they just melt in your mouth.

I've tried many mashed potato recipes, but this one is by far the best. The potatoes are so fluffy and the skins add a nice texture.
