Ingredients

2 large Idaho potatoes (about 2 1/2 pounds), peeled and cut into 2-inch pieces

1 celery root (about 1/2 pound), peeled and cut into 2-inch pieces

4 cloves garlic, peeled

Water

3/4 cup lowfat buttermilk

2 teaspoons olive oil

2 tablespoons minced fresh chives

Salt and ground black pepper

Directions

  1. In a large saucepan, combine potatoes, celery root and garlic cloves. Pour over enough water to cover and set pan over high heat. Bring to a boil, reduce heat to medium and simmer for 8 to 10 minutes, or until potatoes are fork-tender.
  2. Drain and transfer potatoes, celery root and garlic to a large bowl. Add 1/2 cup buttermilk and olive oil and mash or process until smooth (or lumpy, whatever you like!). Add more buttermilk if you want smoother potatoes. Fold in chives. Season to taste with salt and black pepper.
