About Mashed potatoes and gravy
Mashed potatoes and gravy is a classic comfort food derived from Western cuisine, especially popular in American and British households. The dish typically consists of boiled potatoes, which are mashed and mixed with ingredients like butter, cream, or milk for a creamy texture and rich flavor. The gravy, often made from meat drippings, flour, and seasonings, adds depth and savory balance. Mashed potatoes provide a good source of carbohydrates and potassium, supporting energy and muscle function. However, the addition of butter, cream, and salty gravy can increase the calorie, saturated fat, and sodium content, making moderation important for those watching their diet. Variations include healthier alternatives like olive oil or Greek yogurt in place of butter, and vegetable-based gravies for fewer calories. Versatile and satisfying, mashed potatoes and gravy are a beloved side dish that can complement a variety of meals.
