Crock Pot Sour Cream And Chive Mashed Potatoes Recipes

CROCK POT SOUR CREAM AND CHIVE MASHED POTATOES

Steps:

• Spray the slow cooker insert with non stick cooking spray. Chop the potatoes into 1 inch pieces and add them to the crock pot. Sprinkle the salt evenly over the potatoes and add a good amount of pepper. Pour 1½ cups milk over everything. Cook on high for 4-5 hours or until potatoes mash easily with a fork. If you prefer, remove any browned crusty bits from the side of the slow cooker. Mash the potatoes with a potato masher or use a hand mixer to whip until you get the smoothness you desire.
• Warm the butter and additional 1 cup milk until the butter is melted and liquid is warm to the touch but not scalding. Slowly stir in the butter and milk, rotating with the sour cream. Use a potato masher to work the liquid into the potatoes. It will be soupy at first, but the potatoes will soak up the liquid as you mash them in. Add the last ½ cup of milk and sour cream if you want them to be creamier. Taste for seasonings and add more salt and pepper if needed. Stir in the chives. To serve, melt more butter over top and sprinkle with chives.

SLOW COOKER MASHED POTATOES WITH SOUR CREAM AND CHIVES

Steps:

• Toss together the potatoes, melted butter, salt and a generous amount of black pepper in a 6- to 8-quart slow cooker. Cook on high until the potatoes are very tender, stirring once or twice if possible to encourage even cooking, about 4 hours.
• Add the sour cream and remaining 3 tablespoons butter and mash the potatoes with a masher until they are smooth and creamy. Just before serving, fold in the chives and season again with black pepper. Taste and add more salt only if necessary.

SOUR CREAM AND CHIVE MASHED POTATOES

Steps:

• Cover the potatoes with 1 inch of cold water in a large saucepan. Bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer and cook until the potatoes are fork tender, about 20 minutes. In a small pot over low heat combine half-and-half and butter. Heat until hot but not simmering.
• Drain the potatoes in a colander, tossing to remove any excess water. Wipe the saucepan dry. Add the potatoes back to the saucepan and mash to a uniform consistency (or process through a food mill back into the dry pot). Give it a quick mix with a hand mixer to incorporate some air and ensure a smooth texture. Do not overmix or potatoes will become gummy.
• Using a flexible rubber spatula, fold in the melted butter and half-and-half mixture until just incorporated. Fold in sour cream and 1/4 cup chives and season with salt and pepper.
• Transfer to serving bowl and garnish with chopped chives.
