Recipe #54618 | 55 min | 15 min prep | SERVES 6 (Change Servings)

RECIPE BY: Leslie in Texas

This special version of mashed potatoes is called "champ" by the Irish- decadent is what I'd call these! These go great with Lamb Shanks in Guinness With Country Vegetables and is originally from a 1995 Bon Appetit.

    Yummy! I've had this in my cookbook for some time now and have finally gotten around to making it! A nice change to just ordinary mashed taters. I added some nutmeg to the milk and used salted butter. Served with haggis and (for PAC Fall 2007)Balsamic Butter Glazed Baby Carrots. Thanks Leslie!

    I think I'll add sour cream to it next time. These were wonderful! Great with Lamb!

    Very good, even using only 2 T butter. Seems the longer the onions stayed in the milk, the more the flavor intensified. I did that step an hour before boiling the potatoes. Love that flavor.
