Creamy mashed potatoes are enhanced with the rich flavors of bacon, onion, rosemary, and garlic. Ingredients:
3 potatoes, cubed |
1/4 cup butter |
4 slices bacon |
1 small red onion, chopped |
1 clove garlic, minced |
1 tablespoon minced fresh rosemary |
1/2 cup milk |
salt and pepper to taste |
Directions:
1. Place the cubed potatoes in a pot with enough salted water to cover. Bring to a boil, and cook until tender, about 30 minutes; drain. Add butter to drained potatoes to melt; set aside.
2. While the potatoes are cooking, place bacon in a large, deep skillet. Cook over medium high heat until very crisp, about 5 minutes. Remove bacon to paper towels to drain; allow to cool and crumble. Leave 2 tablespoons bacon drippings in skillet and return it to the heat.
3. Cook the onion and garlic in the bacon drippings until tender, about 4 minutes. Stir in the rosemary and cook for 1 minute more.
4. Mash the potatoes with the melted butter. Mix in the crumbled bacon, the onion mixture, and milk; season with salt and pepper.
