Basil and Onion Mashed Potatoes
In the mountainous border country between Piacenza province and the region of Liguria, creamy mashed potatoes become fragrant with a saute of onion, parsley, fresh basil, and garlic. Fresh basil is vital here. The potatoes are especially good when they can sop up the sauces of a country-style braise like Maria Bertuzzi's Lemon Chicken. This recipe halves and doubles easily.
