Recipe from Better Homes and Garden Nov. 2009 issue. It was a $200 winner submitted by Shannon Stephenson in Farnhamville, IA.
Ingredients:
2 1/2 lbs yukon gold potatoes, peeled and quartered
1/2 cup chopped sweet onion
2 tablespoons minced garlic
2 tablespoons butter
1/4 cup dry white wine or 1/4 cup reduced-sodium chicken broth
1/2 cup whipping cream
4 ounces blue cheese, crumbled
sliced green onion (optional)
Directions:
1. 1. In a 4-quart Dutch oven cook potatoes with 1/2 teaspoon salt, covered, in enough boiling water to cover for 20 minutes or until tender.
2. 2. Meanwhile, in a small saucepan cook onion and garlic in hot butter until onion is tender. Stir in wine. Bring mixture to boiling; reduce heat. Simmer, uncovered, for 3 to 4 minutes or until reduced to 1/2 cup.
3. 3. Drain potatoes. Mash with a potato masher or beat with an electric mixer on low speed. Add wine mixture, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper. Gradually beat in whipping cream to make potato mixture light and fluffy. Fold in blue cheese. Top with green onion.
