Mash potatoes

  • When potatoes are fork-tender, drain and return to the pot, off heat.
  • Mash cream, cream cheese and 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) butter into potatoes until creamy. 
  • Season with salt and pepper, then stir to combine.

Make salad

  • In a medium bowl, whisk together vinegar, 1/2 tsp (1 tsp) sugar and 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) oil.

  • Season with salt and pepper, then toss to combine.

6
Finish and serve
