Potatoes with gravy is a classic comfort dish enjoyed across various cuisines, particularly in American, British, and European traditions. This hearty side begins with mashed or roasted potatoes, typically made from starchy varieties like Russet or Yukon Gold, and is topped with savory gravy prepared from meat drippings, stock, flour, and seasonings. Potatoes provide a good source of energy through carbohydrates, as well as vitamins C and B6, potassium, and fiber when the skin is retained. However, the nutritional profile of the dish can vary based on preparation. Gravy often contains saturated fats and sodium, which should be consumed in moderation for heart health. When made with thoughtful ingredient choices—like limiting butter and cream in the potatoes or opting for a lighter, vegetable-based gravy—this comforting dish can be a satisfying and moderately nutritious addition to a balanced meal.
