You have to imagine that Oprah has eaten some of the best foods imaginable. So, these creamy horseradish mashed potatoes must be divine!


serves/makes:
  
ready in:
  30-60 minutes

ingredients

2 1/2 pounds red potatoes
2 1/2 pounds russet potatoes
1 1/4 cup unsalted butter
1 1/4 cup prepared horseradish
1 1/2 cup heavy cream
2 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt
1 1/2 teaspoon black pepper

directions

Scrub the potatoes, leaving the skin on. Cut each potato in half and place in a deep pan. Fill the pan with enough water to fully cover the potatoes. Bring the water to a boil over high heat. When at a full boil, reduce the heat to a simmer and let the potatoes cook until very tender, about 15 minutes.

Drain the water from the potatoes, getting them as dry as possible. Add the butter to the pan and slightly mash the potatoes using a potato masher or large fork. Add the horseradish, heavy cream, salt, and pepper. Mash until the potatoes are the desired consistency. Serve hot.
