Cooks Note

Try this side dish to add zing to a traditional roast beef or a juicy steak.

More variations:
-Try adding finely sliced leeks or onions, cooked gently in butter before combining with hot milk, cream or crème fraiche, potatoes and seasoning.
-For a really fresh but simple addition, sprinkle in chopped chives to creamy mash before serving.
-Some people like to grate fresh nutmeg into the potato.
-Stir in finely grated cheddar to hot mashed potato for a really cheesy mash.
-For something very different, try adding chopped cloves of roasted garlic for garlic mash.
-For a really tangy mashed potato dish, stir in creamed horseradish just before serving.
