Garten's parmesan smashed potatoes, which serve six to eight people, feature red potatoes, unsalted butter, half and half, sour cream, and freshly-grated parmesan cheese.
Mashed potatoes were never Konstantinides' favorite Thanksgiving dish (her family always opted for the boxed variety), but Garten's parmesan smashed potatoes blew her away. The potatoes were delightfully thick, deliciously creamy, and packed with tons of flavor thanks to the salty parmesan and subtly-sweet potatoes.
The parmesan smashed potatoes were also a huge hit at Konstantinides' Friendsgiving, with one friend calling them "the best mashed potatoes" they've ever had. And the recipe was incredibly easy and quick. After giving the potatoes some time to just sit on the stove, Konstantinides barely had to do five minutes of work. It's another great make-ahead dish from the queen of hosting.
