I love potatoes…especially mashed. When I came up with this combination, it was declared a winner. I serve this as a side dish when I have pork as an entree, but it's great with any meat. Ingredients:
4 medium potatoes, peeled and cubed |
2 medium tart apples, peeled and quartered |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
4 bacon strips, diced |
1 small onion, quartered and thinly sliced |
1/4 cup butter, softened |
1 teaspoon cider vinegar |
1/2 teaspoon sugar |
dash ground nutmeg |
Directions:
1. Place the potatoes, apples and salt in a large saucepan; add enough water to cover. Bring to a boil; cover and cook for 12 minutes or until tender.
2. Meanwhile, in a small skillet, cook bacon over medium heat until crisp. Remove to paper towels; drain, reserving 1 teaspoon drippings. In the drippings, saute onion until tender.
3. Drain the potatoes and apples. Add the butter, vinegar and sugar; mash until smooth. Top with bacon, onion and nutmeg. Yield: 4-6 servings.
