    To serious cooks...my personal opinion/conclusion...
    - have made this recipe for guests of different age and/or ethnicity
    - have also made and served this recipe along with another recipe for mashed potatoes...butter/salt/pepper
    THIS recipe is genuine and does make a potato dish that is clean...great with tuna steaks

    The potatoes were easy to make but they didn't have much flavor and tasted like something was missing.

    Very easy and tastes good! I dress it up (I believe I stole the idea from Rachel Ray by mixing in roasted parsnips and/or carrots. The contrast in textures and between salty and sweet really makes it something different than a variation on mashed potatoes. Goes well with pork, beef, or chicken as a protein, as long as that protein has it's own juice/sauce... (Can be a tad dry on its own..
