Instead of plain mashed potatoes, make this casserole for a holiday side dish: just like mashed potatoes, but packed with flavor, including crispy bacon and cheese. Boiled potatoes are blended with milk, mayonnaise, sour cream, butter, and grated cheddar until smooth. Then, in a casserole dish, the mashed potatoes are topped with crumbled fried bacon and grated cheese and baked until golden brown. Besides the bacon, garlic salt adds a piquant flavor to the casserole—a perfect complement to the creamy flavor of the potatoes.



The recipes use measuring containers with the following volumes:
1 glass (st.) - 250 ml.
3/4 cup (st.) - 180 ml.
2/3 cup (st.) - 160 ml.
1/2 cup (st.) - 125 ml.
1/3 cup (st.) - 80 ml.
1/4 cup (st.) - 60 ml.
1 tablespoon (tbsp) - 15 ml.
1 teaspoon (tsp) - 5 ml.
1/5 teaspoon (tsp) - 1 ml.

Cooking the dish according to the recipe:


  1. Preheat oven to 200°C. Spray a 2-quart baking dish with cooking spray.
  2. Peel the potatoes and cut into 2 cm cubes. Place the potatoes in a pressure cooker, add enough water to cover them completely, add salt, and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer until very tender, about 5 minutes. If you don't have a pressure cooker, boil the potatoes in a saucepan of water with a pinch of salt until tender, about 20 minutes.

  3. While the potatoes are cooking, fry the bacon in a medium skillet over medium heat until crisp, 8-10 minutes. Drain the bacon on paper towels and, when cool enough, crumble it into small pieces. Set aside.
  4. In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, combine the milk, mayonnaise, sour cream, butter, garlic salt, black pepper, and 1 cup of cheese. Beat until thoroughly combined. Drain the potatoes and add them to the mixer bowl. Mix again until smooth.
  5. Spoon the mixture into the prepared baking dish. Sprinkle with crumbled bacon and the remaining 1 cup cheese and bake until the cheese is melted and the casserole is heated through, about 20 minutes.
