It will probably depend on what you'll be eating it with. But try adding some creamed horseradish sauce or wholegrain mustard - that's good with roast beef or sausages.

ANY kind of creamy dressing.

Flakes of freshly cooked bacon, done extra crispy, or Bacon Bits if you have to .

Sprinkle toasted sesame seeds and top with grated cheese.

Cook batch of ground beef, drain it then stir in a can of cream of mushroom soup. Maybe add a can of green beans until hot. Spoon a scoopfull of this mess over mashed potatoes.

Answer 7

peel several cloves of garlic, give them a very light smash just to break the clove a little, then SLOWLY cook them in some good olive oil (or add a little butter to the oil) in a small frying pan on the stove until they are golden to dark golden brown, soft, and driving you nuts with the aroma. Drain off most remaining oil / butter, but leave enough to mash with the garlic into a fine paste, and add to your potatoes with butter, cream, salt and pepper.

I didn't say it was health food!
