Chipotle Mashed Potatoes

2 lbs (900 g) potatoes, peeled, boiled, and mashed
6 Tbs (90 ml) butter
1/4 cup (60 ml) heavy cream (or more to taste)
1 medium onion, finely chopped
1 green bell pepper (capsicum), seeded and finely chopped
1/4 tsp (1 ml) ground cumin
1 canned chipotle pepper (or to taste), finely chopped
Salt and freshly ground pepper to taste

Combine the mashed potatoes, 4 tablespoons (60 ml) of the
butter, and cream in a mixing bowl and stir to combine. Melt
the remaining butter in a skillet and saute the onion, pepper,
and cumin until the onion is tender but not brown, about 5
minutes. Stir the onion mixture into the potatoes. Add the
chipotle pepper, salt, and pepper, and taste to adjust the
seasoning. Spoon the mixture into a buttered casserole and
bake in a preheated 375F (190C) oven for 20 minutes. Serves
4 to 6.
