More work than your average mashed potatoes, but so worth it. The recipe was given to us by a family at a daycare where I used to work. They actually won a morning show recipe contest with it and I can understand why. Ingredients:
2 lbs yukon gold potatoes, peeled and cubed |
2 garlic cloves, peeled and sliced |
2 slices bacon, diced |
1/2 cup onion, chopped |
7 ounces chopped green chilies, drained |
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, at room temperature |
3/4 cup milk, warmed |
1 cup white cheddar cheese, grated |
salt |
pepper |
Directions:
1. In large pot of boiling, salted water cook potatoes and garlic until tender. Drain.
2. In medium skillet over medium heat, saute bacon until crisp. Drain.
3. In 2 t drippings saute onion until softened. Stir in green chilis. Cook 1 minute. Set aside.
4. Mash potatoes. Beat in butter. Beat in milk and cheese. Season with salt and pepper. Fold in green chili mixture and bacon.
