Cheesy mashed potato casserole is a comforting, crowd-pleasing dish perfect for family dinners or holidays. Here’s a simple step-by-step guide to make it deliciously creamy and golden.
Ingredients:
- 4 large potatoes, peeled and cubed
- 1/2 cup milk (or cream for richer taste)
- 1/2 cup grated cheese (cheddar, Gruyère, or Parmesan work well)
- 4 tbsp butter, divided
- 1/4 cup sour cream (optional, for tanginess)
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Topping (optional): 1/4 cup breadcrumbs, 1 tbsp melted butter, and a sprinkle of cheese.
Steps:
1. Cook Potatoes: Boil cubed potatoes in salted water for 15-20 minutes until tender. Drain well and return to the pot.
2. Mash and Mix: Add 2 tbsp butter, milk, sour cream, salt, and pepper. Mash until smooth and creamy. Stir in most of the grated cheese, reserving some for topping.
3. Layer and Top: Transfer the mixture to a baking dish. Dot with remaining butter, sprinkle leftover cheese, and add breadcrumbs mixed with melted butter if using.
4. Bake: Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Bake for 20-25 minutes until bubbly and golden on top. Let it cool for 5 minutes before serving.
Enjoy this hearty dish hot, straight from the oven! It pairs well with grilled meats or fresh salads.
