Mashed Potatoes…

It seems everyone has a version of doctored mashed potatoes. My sister makes garlic mashed potatoes to die for but won’t part with the recipe… bad sister.
The British have a dish called Bubble and Squeak. They will use leftover mashed potatoes from Sunday dinner; mix it cabbage for lunch on Mondays. I have yet to make this dish; I am still looking for a recipe… If anyone has one please email it to me or message it to me on Facebook.
The recipe below would be wonderful with steak, prime rib or even lamb.
Chives Horseradish Mashed Potatoes with Thyme Butter
3 cups of prepared mashed potatoes
6 tablespoons butter, softened
1 cup sour cream
2 springs fresh thyme
1 Tablespoon horseradish, prepared
3 Tablespoons fresh chives, chopped

In small saucepan heat thyme sprigs and 2 Tablespoons of butter, to simmer. Removed from heat
In small bowl, combine remaining butter, chives, sour cream, season with salt and pepper to taste.
Whip horseradish and sour cream mixture into the mashed potatoes. Do not over mix.
