What a hit these potatoes were! I used half the milk and sour cream called for - and the texture was just as we like mashed potatoes. I used extra garlic (from past experience; since garlic gets milder and sweeter as it cooks, if anyone wants a real garlicky flavour, best to add fresh garlic as you mash the potatoes, or add garlic powder). The herbs which I chopped and rubbed between my fingers to bring out the flavour before adding) made these very special. Delicious!

this is delicious - i did however, use dried herbs and garlic - i used 1 tsp garlic and mixed it in with the other herbs - i used 1 tsp parsley, 1 tsp oregano, about 1/4 tsp thyme, about 1 tbsp margarine - and the rest i left the same - oh i sized it to 4 servings btw... and it is so yummy - i'm taking the leftovers for lunch tomorrow - i'm so lucky to have leftovers - yay - i get to eat it again... i also liked that this recipe did not contain cheese b/c i have a picky-eater husband who despises cheese... thanks Stephanie for this great and easy recipe!

These were very good. Next time I will add a few more cloves of garlic because I couldn't really taste it in the potatoes.

I made these mashed potatoes with high hopes; however, they were actually a bit bland which is surprising with the addition of all of those fresh (and very expensive!) fresh herbs. The presentation was pretty, but threw my kids off at first because they were not the "normal" looking mashed potatoes - they did eat them once tasted, though!

It was good. A bit moister than I prefer, but the taste was excellent.

I made a few changes to make them more to my liking. I added about an extra 2 table spoons of milk to make them more creamy. I also added a couple of shakes of dried dill in place of the parsley. Dill + sour cream go great together.

I thought they were OK, like others have said you couldn't really taste the garlic and I almost doubled what the recipe asked for.

I agree with a previous response. It was way too many herbs. My husband said I could not make this anymore. And no one ate it really.

This was a big hit with my family. I loved the blend of the herbs with the creaminess of the potatoes. I also used dried herbs instead of fresh - about 1 Tbsp parsley, 1 Tsp oregano, and 1 tsp thyme. Will definitely make this again!
