Mashed potatoes with skin is a rustic, nutrient-packed twist on the classic dish, often associated with comfort food traditions in American and European cuisines. This preparation uses boiled potatoes, typically Russet or Yukon Gold, where the skins are left intact, adding texture and flavor. Key ingredients include potatoes, butter or cream for richness, and optional seasonings such as salt, pepper, or garlic. Leaving the skin boosts the dish's nutritional profile, providing dietary fiber, potassium, and antioxidants found in the potato peel. It is a hearty source of energy from its carbohydrate content, but its caloric value can rise significantly depending on added fats like butter, cream, or cheese. Mashed potatoes with skin are a wholesome yet indulgent option, best enjoyed as a side dish to balance meals with lean proteins and vegetables.
