Mashed Potatoes With Vegetables image

This is a delicious side dish to go with most any meal. If you have some leftover vegetable odds and ends you can mix them into the potato mixture like I did the corn and green beans.

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 lb potatoes, peeled, rough chopped
12 oz sweet potatoes, peeled, rough chopped
6 c chicken broth
2 medium carrots, rough chopped
1 medium yellow onion, peeled, rough chopped
4 clove garlic, peeled, rough chopped
1 tsp dill weed
1/2 c sour cream and more if needed
3 Tbsp chopped cilantro

1/4 tsp freshly ground black pepper, to taste
1/2 stick butter, cut up
1/4 c cooked corn
1/4 c cooked green beans

Steps:

  • 1. Put potatoes, sweet potatoes, and broth in a large pot. Bring to a boil for about 15 minutes.
  • 2. Add the carrots, onion, and garlic to the pot and cook until all of the vegetables are tender, about 20 more minutes.
  • 3. Drain the vegetables, reserving the broth. Add the dill, sour cream, cilantro, butter, salt and pepper. Use an electric mixer to mix and mash up these vegetables and condiments.
  • 4. Add the corn, green beans, and chopped cilantro and fold into the potato mixture. Taste and adjust the seasonings if needed. Serve and enjoy.
  • 5. You can use the cooking liquid to make a tasty gravy to use with the meal. This turned out good enough that everyone went back for seconds and all was eaten.
