Mashed red potatoes are a creamy, comforting dish made from boiled and mashed red-skinned potatoes, blended with ingredients like butter, milk or cream, salt, and pepper. Native to European and North American cuisines, these potatoes stand out for their subtly sweet flavor and smooth texture, with a hint of earthiness from their thin red skin, which is often left on for added nutrients. Rich in potassium, vitamin C, and fiber, mashed red potatoes can support heart health and digestion when prepared thoughtfully. Healthier versions can substitute full-fat dairy with plant-based milk or Greek yogurt. However, the dish's calorie and saturated fat content can increase with the addition of butter or heavy cream. Versatile and satisfying, mashed red potatoes are beloved as a side dish in both traditional and modern culinary settings, pairing well with proteins, vegetables, and savory sauces.
