Firstly I would use a basic mashed potato recipe like the one here as a starting point. Then you could add any one of the following items, or combine them to make a new and interesting mashed potato recipe. Thanks to the good people at roadfood for a few of these suggestions – that sauerkraut has got me salivating from the mouth!
