Feta and Herb Mashed Potatoes

Feta Cheese Mashed Potatoes make for the perfect fresh side dish. Use up the herbs in your garden and mix them throughout creamy mashed potatoes for a tangy and refreshing potato side dish.

Feta and Herb Mashed Potatoes

I’ve been making these Feta Cheese Mashed Potatoes for almost a decade now. They have become a staple in my home, and family often request to have these mashed potatoes. I paired these Feta Cheese Mashed Potatoes with my Grilled Greek Pork Tenderloin and my Greek-Style Cucumber, Tomato, and Feta Salad.

Feta and Herb Mashed Potatoes

These mashed potatoes are fresh and full of flavor and surprisingly they don’t need any stinking gravy. You see… I have a slight problem with drowning my food with gravy. I guess we could call it a gravy addiction. I feel the need to smother my potatoes with the salty liquid, but for once… not these spuds! Anytime I make these potatoes for family and friends they all instantly fall in love with the potatoes! Why not switch up your usual holiday mashed potatoes and make these fresh and vibrant potatoes instead?

Tips & Tricks

Here are a few of my tips and tricks I’ve found useful when making Feta Cheese Mashed Potatoes.

  • Potatoes – I recommend using Yukon potatoes and not red potatoes (as pictured above). Since taking this photo I’ve tested the recipe a few more times and found that the Yukon potatoes yield a better and smoother texture for this mashed potato dish.
  • Herbs – Fresh herbs are best for this recipe.
  • Chopping – Always chop your potatoes evenly so that they cook evenly.

Equipment

  • Stove Top

Ingredients

  • 6 medium white potatoes peeled
  • 1 tablespoon salt
  • ¼ cup Fresh parsley minced
  • ¼ cup Dill minced
  • ¼ cup Green Onions sliced
  • ½ cup feta cheese
  • ¼ cup salted butter
  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper
  • *3 tablespoon milk if needed

Instructions

  • Peel, chop, and rinse potatoes. Fill water to just above the potatoes and add 1 tablespoon salt. Bring to a boil and cook for about 20 minutes or until the potatoes are soft enough to fall apart when a knife is inserted in them.
  • Drain potatoes, and add ¼ cup butter to the pot the potatoes were boiling in. Add the potatoes back to the pot then add fresh parsley, dill, and green onions followed by feta cheese. Place a lid on top of the potatoes and let them sit for 5 minutes.
  • Add black pepper to the potatoes and mash using a potato masher. Add milk if needed (one tablespoon at a time or until moist). Top with more fresh herbs and butter and serve immediately.

Notes

  • Potatoes – I recommend using Yukon potatoes and not red potatoes (as pictured above). Since taking this photo I’ve tested the recipe a few more times and found that the Yukon potatoes yield a better and smoother texture for this mashed potato dish.
  • Herbs – Fresh herbs are best for this recipe.
  • Chopping – Always chop your potatoes evenly so that they cook evenly.
