Mashed potatoes

I just always love mashed potatoes. Browsing on the net I saw this recipe. Quite "full" recipe. A (small) dollop should be more than enough if you serve with more dishes.

Last week I had dinner at my sisters house. Friends were cooking for her and he made an amazing tasty mashed potatoes. Secret ingredient: truffes oil... man man, that was so good. Still have to ask what brand oil he used. This one had a strong flavor. Served with cucumber salad, salmon and broccoli. Fantastic.
