Ryan, on almost a weekly basis, asks for my fried/baked breaded chicken. He had been a rattling skilful sport nearly the 'not-so-manly' things I had made that calendar week - therefore I wanted to non alone to brand his love fried/baked breaded chicken, only also to add together a fiddling extra Ryan-love to the side dish. All nosotros had was a pile of cherry potatoes sitting on my counter. Normally I would slice/boil/season them upwardly together with serve them inward chunks. But I knew darn good Ryan likes his potatoes mashed. And mashed difficult core.

I learned piece preparing this recipe, that if y'all delicately simmer your fiddling cherry potatoes, instead of balls-out boiling them to death, they volition come upwardly out beautifully. It takes longer, yes, only trust me it works. Also, later draining every final driblet of H2O from the potatoes later simmering, shell the potatoes inward your mixer for a 2nd without the additions. Speaking of lovely additions, this recipe is loaded amongst all kinds of heavenly ingredients: sour cream, half-and-half, heavenly butter, together with salty Parmesan. So y'all know it's gonna live on delicious. 

What? Too much? You're making mashed potatoes for crying-out-loud. Add inward the goods. If y'all wanted it to live on healthy, acquire popular a murphy inward the microwave together with swallow it amongst a fork. Guaranteed mine tastes better.

But y'all should in all likelihood continue your running shoes nearby.
