Mr. L'S Mashed Potatoes

• 3 large russet potatoes, peeled and cubed
• 1/2 stick unsalted butter
• 1/3 cup sour cream
• 1/4 cup buttermilk
• 1 teaspoon salt (to taste)
• 1/2 tablespoon whole black peppercorns
• 2 large rosemary sprigs
• 3 to 5 cloves garlic (depending how big they are)

1. Put all the dairy in a dish and allow it to come to room temperature
2. Fill a large pot 2/3 full of salted water. Add the peppercorns, garlic and rosemary. Bring to a rolling boil and remove the rosemary, then add the potatoes.
3. Boil until the potatoes are very soft, then drain them and put them back in the pot - garlic and peppercorns and all. Let them sit and steam for about 5 minutes.
4. Add the dairy and mash until creamy. I use a hand masher but you could use a hand mixer as well. Serve with a steak and a big glass of good red wine!
