Watercress Mash


This recipe comes from the Watercress Alliance and is an interesting twist on mashed potato. In fact it seems to be a supercharged health meal though you may wish to adapt it slightly by reducing the olive oil and butter content.
You Need:

600g potatoes, peeled and diced

2 cloves garlic, chopped

50ml olive oil, 50g butter

1 x 85g bags of watercress, finely chopped

4 spring onions, chopped

30g French mustard

100g grated cheddar cheese

Sea salt and grated black pepper

Boil the potatoes with the garlic until soft enough to mash. Drain and mash.
Add olive oil and butter and stir well. Add chopped watercress, spring
onions, mustard and cheese.
Season with salt and black pepper.
