Creamy Leek Mashed Potatoes




Source of Recipe


Mai


List of Ingredients




4 pounds baking potatoes, peeled and quartered
1 1/2 teaspoons salt, divided
3 to 4 large leeks
2 tablespoons butter or margarine
1/2 cup butter or margarine
1/2 teaspoon ground white pepper
1/2 to 3/4 cup milk
3 tablespoons buttermilk



Recipe



Bring potatoes, 1 teaspoon salt, and water to cover to a boil in a Dutch oven; boil 20 to 25 minutes or until potatoes are tender. Drain, and keep warm.

Remove root, tough outer leaves, and tops from leeks, leaving 2 inches of dark leaves. Thinly slice leeks; rinse well, and drain.

Melt 2 tablespoons butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat; add leeks, and sauté 5 minutes. (Do not brown.)

Mash potatoes with a potato masher; stir in remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1/2 cup butter, and next 3 ingredients until blended. Stir in leeks.
