Mashed Red Skinned Potatoes With Scallions - cooking recipe

Ingredients

2 lbs red potatoes, quartered
1/2 cup heavy cream
1/2 cup unsalted butter
1/2 cup sour cream
1/2 cup scallion, greens only, cut on the bias
salt & freshly ground black pepper

Preparation

Place potatoes in a large pot, cover with water, salt liberally, and bring to a boil over medium heat.
Reduce heat and simmer until tender, about 20 minutes.
Meanwhile, in another pot heat cream and butter over low heat; do not allow to boil.
Drain the potatoes, return to the pot and mash with a potato masher (do not over-mash or they will become gluey).
Continue mashing, adding cream and butter mixture, sour cream, salt and pepper.
Stir in scallions and serve.
