Mashed potatoes with gravy is a classic comfort dish widely enjoyed in American and European cuisines, often featured in holiday meals and hearty dinners. The mashed potatoes are typically prepared by boiling peeled potatoes, mashing them to a creamy consistency, and mixing in butter, cream, or milk for added richness. The gravy, a savory sauce, is usually made from pan drippings of roasted meat, broth, flour, and seasonings. While mashed potatoes offer nutritional benefits like potassium, vitamin C, and fiber, the butter and cream can contribute to higher fat and calorie content. Gravy may contain sodium and fat, depending on its ingredients and preparation. For a healthier version, you can choose low-fat dairy options and limit added salt. This dish is a warm, flavorful staple that balances indulgence with satisfying simplicity.
