Roasted Mashed Potatoes Recipe

Add Step-by-Step Photos	Laurak / All my dishes 1 year, 4 months ago I wanted to try a new way of making mashed potatoes, and this worked wonderfully. I would recommend it when you're already roasting a chicken or something, because the chicken juices made the potatoes extra tasty. Prep:90m Cook:75m Servings:3	Laurak

Ingredients

2 Idaho potatoes

1 T. olive oil

1 T. dried oregano

salt and pepper

1/4 c. milk

Directions

Cut the potatoes into 1-inch pieces, and toss in the bottom of a roasting pan with olive oil, oregano, salt, and pepper. If you're roasting a chicken, rest the chicken on top of the potatoes to roast.

Bake the potatoes (and chicken, if you're doing that) in a 400F oven for an hour to an hour and a half. You want the potatoes to be soft enough to break apart with a fork easily.

Heat the milk in a small saucepan. The oil in which the potatoes cooked will probably be enough fat, but you might want to add a bit of extra butter if they seem dry. Slowly add the milk in, mashing the potatoes with a fork, until you reach the consistency you like.

Roasting the potatoes with a chicken adds a bit of extra flavor, but I bet these would be good without the chicken juices, too.
