Creamy potatoes with garlic and herbs is a satisfying side to any meat dish. Sandi Richard came up with this, but I changed it a bit. Enjoy!
Ingredients:
2 lbs potatoes
4 garlic cloves, whole, peeled
1 1/2 teaspoons butter or 1 1/2 teaspoons olive oil
1/4 teaspoon dried sage
1/8 teaspoon salt
black or white pepper, to taste
1/4 cup nonfat sour cream or 1/4 cup 1% fat buttermilk
Directions:
1. Peel potatoes and cut in half. Place in large stovetop pot with 4 whole garlic cloves. Cover with cold water and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to a gentle boil and cook until potatoes are tender.
2. When potatoes are tender, drain and mash along with garlic cloves using a potato masher or electric beaters.
3. Stir butter or olive oil, sage, salt, pepper and sour cream or buttermilk into the remaining potatoes and return to low heat, stirring until warm.
