Cheesy mashed potato casserole is a comforting, crowd-pleasing dish, perfect as a side or main course. Here’s a simple yet delicious recipe to guide you.
Ingredients:
- 4 large potatoes, peeled and cubed
- ½ cup milk (or cream for extra richness)
- ½ cup unsalted butter, divided
- 1 ½ cups shredded cheese (cheddar, Gruyère, or a mix work best)
- ½ cup sour cream (for tanginess)
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- Salt, pepper, and paprika to taste
- Optional toppings: Breadcrumb, chopped chives, or bacon bits.
Steps:
1. Cook Potatoes: Boil cubed potatoes in salted water until tender (15–20 mins). Drain well and mash until smooth.
2. Prepare Mixture: While potatoes are hot, stir in ¼ cup melted butter, milk, sour cream, minced garlic, salt, and pepper. Mix until creamy.
3. Add Cheese: Fold in 1 cup of shredded cheese, reserving the rest for topping.
4. Assemble: Transfer to a baking dish. Dot with remaining butter, sprinkle the rest of the cheese, and add breadcrumbs or paprika if desired.
5. Bake: Bake at 375°F (190°C) for 20–25 mins, until golden and bubbly. Let rest for 5 mins before serving.
Tips: For extra flavor, roast garlic before adding, or mix in herbs like rosemary. Enjoy this creamy, indulgent dish straight from the oven!
