Buttermilk Mashed Potatoes

Ingredients:

4        pounds Yukon gold potatoes (about 12 medium), peeled and cut into 2 inch pieces

Salt and Pepper

2        T margarine or butter

3         bunches green onion, thinly sliced crosswise

1 1/4  c buttermilk

Directions:

In covered 5 quart saucepot, combine potaotes, 1 teaspoon salt and enough water to cover; heat to boiling on high. Reduce heat to low; simmer, covered, until fork tender, about 20 minutes.

Meanwhile, in 12 inch nonstick skillet, melt margrine on medium. Add green onions and cook 3 to 5 minutes or just until tender, stirring occasionally. Add buttermilk; heat to lukewarm (don’t worry if buttermilk separates; it comes back together in the mixing), stirring occasionally. Remove skillet from heat.

Drain potatoes. Return potatoes to saucepot and heat on low to dry slightly, about 2 minutes, tossing occasionally. With potato mashed, coarsely mash potatoes. Add buttermilk mixture, 1 teaspoon salt and 1.2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper; continue mashing until almost smooth. Reheat potatoes, if necessary.
