Brown Butter Mashed Potatoes

These brown butter mashed potatoes are easy to make with a short list of ingredients and swirled with rich and nutty brown butter.

I mean, do we really need any inveigling to make this one?! ♡

Deliciously nutty, caramelized, rich brown butter is naturally a match made in heaven when it comes to enhancing linty mashed potatoes. But when combined with a generous value of garlic, freshly-grated Parmesan cheese and a sprinkling of fresh chives, these potatoes are simply divine. I’m unchangingly tempted to toss in a half dozen other uneaten add-ins when making mashed potatoes, but I highly recommend exercising some restraint in this specimen so that the savor of the brown butter can be front and part-way here when it comes to flavor. Trust me, you are going to love them!

As always, I recommend making mashed potatoes with a mix of Russets and Yukon Golds, for the optimum mix of starchy and velvety textures. And while I kept things simple for this recipe with plain milk to make them nice and creamy, you’re welcome to add in some uneaten sour surf or surf cheese if you prefer increasingly of a tang.

Let’s melt up a quick batch of brown butter and take our mashed potatoes to the next level, shall we?
