Golden Mashed Potatoes with Green Onions image

Yukon gold potatoes are buttery enough, but when you mash them with more butter and lots of milk, they are a creamy sweet heaven! The green onions add flavor and color to this perfect side dish. Great by themselves or topped with your favorite gravy.

Yield 5

Number Of Ingredients 7

7 medium Yukon gold potatoes, scrubbed and quartered
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 clove garlic, minced
½ cup milk
3 tablespoons butter
salt and ground black pepper to taste
⅓ cup diced green onions

Steps:

  • Place potatoes into a large pot and cover with salted water; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until tender, about 20 minutes. Drain.
  • Return potatoes to the pot and let sit, uncovered, for about 5 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, heat olive oil in a small saucepan over medium-low heat. Add garlic and saute just until it becomes fragrant, 1 to 2 minutes.
  • Add garlic to the potatoes along with milk and butter. Mash with a potato masher until very creamy. Season with salt and pepper, then stir in green onions.
