    3       lg           Baking potatoes
    1 1/2   tb           Butter
    1                    Leek, thinly sliced
    1       lb           Mushrooms, thinly sliced
    1       t            Vegetable oil
                         Salt and pepper to taste
      1/4   c            Butter, softened and cut in
                         ... pieces
      1/2   c            Buttermilk
      1/2   c            Sour cream, at room temp
 
   Boil the potatoes until tender. Heat 1/2 T butter in a
   skillet and cook the leeks for 5 - 7 minutes, until
   tender and golden. Set aside. In a large skillet, over
   moderate heat, cook the mushrooms in the remaining
   tablespoon of butter until they begin to render their
   juices. Turn up the heat and continue cooking until
   they are almost dry. Season with salt and pepper.
   Preheat the oven to 350. When the potatoes are tender,
   drain, peel, and return them to the pot. Toss over low
   heat to dry, then put them through a ricer into a
   mixer bowl. Beat in the softened butter, buttermilk,
   and salt and pepper to taste. Spread half the potatoes
   on the bottom of a shallow baking dish.  Spread the
   mushrooms over the potatoes and the leeks over the
   mushrooms.  Spread with 1 cup of sour cream and cover
   with the remaining potatoes. Bake, uncovered, for 45
   minutes to 1 hour or until browned and bubbling.
