Step 1
Start by putting the cubed potatoes in a pot and covering them with water. Bring the water to a boil, then let the potatoes cook for about 15 minutes, or until they’re nice and tender when pierced with a fork. Drain the potatoes and transfer them to a bowl. Use a potato masher to mash them until smooth. Slowly stir in the sour cream, nonfat milk, and Dijon mustard until everything is well combined. Taste and season with garlic salt and pepper to your liking. Give it a good mix, and you’re ready to serve!
Why you’ll love it
These mashed potatoes have a bright and tangy twist that lifts the classic comfort food to a new level. The Dijon mustard adds just the right amount of zing without overpowering the creamy texture. It’s a great way to add flavor without extra heaviness.
How to serve
This dish pairs beautifully with roasted meats, especially chicken or pork. It also works well alongside steamed vegetables or a fresh green salad for a balanced meal. Adding a sprinkle of fresh herbs on top can brighten the flavors even more.
Storage & leftovers
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently on the stove or in the microwave, adding a splash of milk if needed to restore creaminess. Avoid freezing as the texture may become grainy.
