This recipe offers a unique twist on classic mashed potatoes, making for a creamy and flavorful dish that can be served as a light meal or a hearty side.
4 adult portions (meal), 6-8 portions (side dish)
1kg potatoes
200ml milk*
200ml mayonnaise*
~100g cheese
Garlic powder
12-16 strips of bacon
Butter
3-4 green onions
Black pepper
Salt
Peel and cut the potatoes into medium sized pieces.
Put the potatoes in a pot with some water so that it covers the potatoes and boil them for about 20-30 minutes, or until the potatoes are soft.
About ten minutes before removing the potatoes from the boiling water, cut the bacon into little pieces and fry it.
Warm up the milk and mayonnaise.
Shred the cheese.
When the potatoes are done, remove all water from the pot, add the warm milk and mayonnaise mix, add some butter, and mash with a potato masher or a blender.
Add some salt, black pepper and garlic powder to taste and continue mashing the mix.
Once the mix is somewhat homogeneous and the potatoes are properly mashed, add the shredded cheese and fried bacon and mix a little.
Serve and top with chopped green onions.
