1
Peeling and Chopping Potatoes
Begin by peeling the Russet potatoes and cutting them into evenly sized chunks, about 1-2 inches each. This will help them cook evenly.
2
Boiling Potatoes
Place the chopped potatoes in a large pot and cover them with cold water. Add 1 tsp of salt to the water and bring it to a boil over high heat. Once boiling, reduce the heat to medium and let the potatoes simmer for 15-20 minutes, or until they are fork-tender.

3
Draining Potatoes
Once the potatoes are tender, drain them in a colander and return them to the pot.
4
Adding Butter and Milk
Add the butter and milk to the drained potatoes. Use a potato masher or fork to begin mashing the potatoes until smooth and creamy.
5
Incorporating Seasonings
Add the remaining salt and black pepper to the mashed potatoes, adjusting to taste. Mix thoroughly.

6
Mixing in Smoked Gouda
Fold in the shredded smoked Gouda cheese into the mashed potatoes while they are still warm, allowing the cheese to melt and incorporate fully.
7
Garnishing
Transfer the mashed potatoes to a serving bowl and sprinkle chopped chives on top for garnish.
8
Serving
Serve the smoked Gouda mashed potatoes warm as a delicious side dish.
