In this side dish, a traditional mashed potato recipe is kicked up with a bit of horseradish and some cream cheese for a delicious dish. While we love this as a side for anything, it’s especially good with roast beef.
We love horseradish mashed potatoes because they have such a great flavor!
Ingredients
POTATOES For mashed potatoes we love Russets or Yukon Gold potatoes because they produce light and fluffy results but are starchy enough that they have great texture. No need to peel Yukon Golds as their skins are thin and easily cooked into the potatoes. SEASONING 4 cloves of garlic, horseradish, (of course!) green onion, and parsley, plus salt & pepper make these mashed potatoes the tastiest ever. DAIRY The secret ingredient to perfectly creamy mashed potatoes is cream cheese! We love cream cheese potatoes and the addition of milk and salted butter make them creamy and flavorful!
How to Make Horseradish Mashed Potatoes
Perfect Potatoes Every Time
Before getting started, let the cream cheese and butter come to room temperature. This makes them easier to mash in with the cooked potatoes and cuts down on prep time. Ensure potatoes are well-drained. Warming the milk will create smooth and fluffy results every time! Mash by hand or use a potato ricer. A mixer can overmix the potatoes and make for a thick gluey texture. Try Air Fryer Roasted Garlic for a different flavor profile!
Perfect Side Dish!
Pair them up with a beefy Mississippi pot roast, or a Crockpot pork tenderloin. Or serve them alongside a Crockpot ham. A Meatloaf recipe is elevated to new heights when it’s served with horseradish mashed potatoes!
Leftovers
Leftover horseradish mashed potatoes taste better the next day! Store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator and they will last about 4 days. To freeze mashed potatoes, scoop them into zippered bags, write the date on the outside and they will keep in the freezer for about a year, which makes this a great recipe for make-ahead meals.
