My thoughts:

Thanksgiving side dishes are ever a pop topic of conversation i time Halloween is over. it seems similar people are of 2 types when it comes to Thanksgiving. Those who absolutely must brand the exact same things the exact same agency every yr together with those who persuasion Thanksgiving every bit the best 24-hour interval to dazzle everyone amongst something new. I'm a mix of both, nosotros acquire to my parents' solid for Thanksgiving together with I commonly brand i novel dish to part but they brand pretty much the same things they convey since my whole life. This dish is variety of a combination of both philosophies. My household unit of measurement ever makes mashed potatoes (imagine my surprise when I went to Thanksgiving at my in-laws solid together with learned they didn't brand mashed potatoes!) but a pretty apparently version. This version has a leg up: non exclusively are they made inwards the irksome cooker, freeing upwards a burner for other dishes, they are positively infused amongst flavour from cooking amongst the onion together with garlic for hours. The onion together with garlic destination upwards thence soft, they crush correct into the potatoes, leaving them smoothen together with flavorful. They are too a fleck lighter than approximately mashed potatoes, the yogurt gives a fleck of tang but too makes them really creamy without having to add together heavy cream or fifty-fifty whole milk. Perfect for a repast when you lot mightiness move indulging inwards to a greater extent than extravagant treats.

Added bonus: this is i of those recipes that doesn't appear similar it would run (mashed potatoes inwards the irksome cooker?) but totally does adds a piffling "wow" element to a commonly humble side dish.
