I love potatoes .. mmm … I ADORE potatoes!
By time, you will find me posting all kinds & forms of potato recipes!
Mashed potato is one of my favorite dishes .. it simply goes along with any kind of food so I like to create many variations on this old time favorite!
Plain mashed potato can be very bland … I always like to add something; maybe herbs, onion, garlic but in this recipe, it is rayeb milk.
You won’t believe that adding just 1 ingredient totally transforms the regular mashed potato you are used to (not that regular mashed potato is bad)! Rayeb milk adds a distinctive tangy flavor that takes mashed potato to a whole new level.
Even if you don’t like rayeb milk, you will still fall in love with this recipe because no one ever knows that this tangy taste is coming from rayeb.
