Ingredients
- 8-10 medium idaho russet potatoes
- 1/4 cup milk
- 2 tablespoons sour cream
- 1/2 cup blue bonnet margarine
- salt
- pepper
- parsley flakes, to top
Directions
1
Peel, cut up and boil potatoes until tender.2
Drain water and put potatoes in a mixing bowl.3
Add margarine, sour cream and milk.4
Use an electric mixer and mix until desired consistency.5
The KEY here is to add salt and pepper to taste.6
You might add anywhere from a teaspoon to several tablespoons of salt, just depending on how much you like salt.7
Pepper is the same way, although use it more sparingly.8
Just remember to add a little at a time, until you get it where you like it.9
Once that is done, I usually put a couple of pats of margarine on top of the finished potatoes to let it melt.10
Then sprinkle parsley over it.11
This will make the best mashed potatoes I've ever found anywhere.

I LOVE mashed potatoes and can eat them all by themselves as a meal. I used butter and added cream cheese and a little onion powder to this recipe and it was creamy and awesome!!!

Turned out wonderful.I started in cold water, bring to a boil (takes about 15 min). cover and simmer about 30 min. until fork tender. Drain and place back in pan over heat 30 seconds to remove water. I then followed directions but wanted to explain the boiling method because until someone told me a good method I wasn't sure the best way to boil the potatoes. Thanks for a great recipe!!!

These were so good, fluffy, and tasty! My finnicky daughter forfeited dessert so she could have more of these potatoes! I threw in a couple of garlic cloves into the water the potatoes were boiling in to soften them, and added them into the mixer to blend. Great if you love garlic....as I do!!
