This recipe is a great taste improvement on regular old mashed potatoes. The cream gravy is excellent. Ingredients:
5 large russet potatoes, peeled and cubed |
3 tablespoons butter, divided |
1/3 cup diced celery hearts |
1/3 cup finely chopped onion |
1/4 cup heavy cream |
1/2 teaspoon celery salt |
freshly ground black pepper to taste |
2 teaspoons butter |
1 1/2 tablespoons all-purpose flour |
1 cup chicken broth |
1/3 cup heavy cream |
1/2 teaspoon onion powder |
Directions:
1. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add potatoes and cook until tender, about 15 minutes. Drain.
2. Meanwhile, melt 1 tablespoon butter in a small saucepan over medium heat. Saute celery and onion for about 8 minutes, or until tender.
3. To the cooked potatoes add the celery and onion, 2 tablespoons butter, 1/4 cup cream, celery salt and ground black pepper. With an electric mixer on low, beat until desired consistency is reached.
4. To make the gravy melt 2 teaspoons butter in a small saucepan. Add flour and cook 5 minutes, stirring constantly. Gradually whisk in chicken broth and cook over medium-high heat until thickened. Stir in 1/3 cup cream and onion powder; heat through.
