MASHED POTATOES AND CAULIFLOWER WITH CHIVES



Mashed Potatoes and Cauliflower with Chives image

Surprise, surprise: Cauliflower replaces nearly all of the usual potatoes and butter in these calorie-friendly mashed spuds that are ready in just 25 minutes. Yukon gold potatoes are a richly flavored, yellow-fleshed variety that add traditional flavor and texture in this lightened twist on mashed potatoes. In addition to chives, you can incorporate other fresh herbs, such as thyme, rosemary, and oregano, or stir in cayenne pepper with cumin and paprika for a dish with a Southwestern flavor. Mash the mixture to your desired consistency, mashing less for a side dish with more texture or longer for a smooth option.

MASHED POTATOES WITH CHIVES

This is about as simple as it gets: classically prepared mashed potatoes - just potatoes, milk, butter and salt - get a generous handful of pretty chives stirred in. Be sure to add plenty of salt, and taste as you go; good mashed potatoes rely on it.
