Garlic Mashed Potatoes are the epitome of comfort food and the ultimate holiday side dish. They take the humble potato and elevate it to a creamy, flavourful delight that's hard to resist.
To make these luscious, mashed potatoes, you start with Yukon Gold potatoes, which are peeled and chopped. Then, the magic happens when the chopped potatoes, butter, and water are placed into the Chef iQ Smart Cooker and cooked with just a touch of a button until the potatoes are perfectly tender.
The Chef iQ Multi-functional Smart Pressure Cooker from Home Hardware features 6 cooking functions in one countertop appliance. Pressure-cook, sear, steam, slow cook, ferment, or keep warm any of your favourite meals. Paired with your Chef iQ app, you can master this recipe and Chef iQ’s growing library of guided cooking videos with ease.
Butter and sour cream are essential ingredients in this recipe, contributing to the creamy, velvety texture that makes mashed potatoes so beloved. A generous amount of butter is melted into the potatoes while cooking, and sour cream, milk, and garlic salt are added while mashing until you achieve the perfect consistency. These mashed potatoes are not only creamy but also perfectly seasoned.
The result is a side dish that's both rustic and elegant, with a balanced garlic flavour that isn't overpowering. Garlic Mashed Potatoes are incredibly versatile and pair wonderfully with a variety of main courses, from roast chicken to grilled steak.
