Ingredients

🥔 6-7 red potatoes
🧈 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
🥄 1/2 cup sour cream
🥛 1/2 cup milk
🧂 1 teaspoon seasoning salt
🧀 1/2 cup cubed cheddar cheese
🧀 1/2 cup shredded Gouda cheese
🧀 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
🧄 Optional: 2 cloves garlic, minced (for garlic lovers)
🥄 Optional: 2 tablespoons compound butter, for added richness

Instructions

1- Prepare the Potatoes:

• Wash the red potatoes thoroughly. You can leave the skins on for extra flavor and texture.
• Cut the potatoes into equal chunks to ensure even cooking.

2- Boil the Potatoes:

• Place the potato chunks in a large pot and cover with cold water. Add a pinch of salt.
• Bring to a boil over medium-high heat and cook until the potatoes are tender, about 15-20 minutes. A fork should easily pierce through them.
• Drain the potatoes and return them to the pot.

3- Mash the Potatoes:

• Use a potato masher or a hand mixer to mash the potatoes until they reach your desired consistency.
• If you like garlic, add the minced garlic and mash together for an extra layer of flavor.

4- Incorporate the Creamy Ingredients:

• Add the butter, sour cream, and milk to the mashed potatoes.
• Sprinkle in the seasoning salt and mix until everything is well combined and creamy.

5- Make it Cheesy:

• Stir in the cubed cheddar, shredded Gouda, and grated Parmesan.
• Mix until the cheeses are fully melted and evenly distributed throughout the potatoes.

6- Serve and Enjoy:

• If using compound butter, top the warm mashed potatoes with it before serving for an extra dose of flavor.
• Serve as a delightful side dish with your favorite meat dish and green beans. Optionally, top with gravy and onions for a complete experience.
