Method

Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Potatoes

    Peel the Russet potatoes and cut them into quarters. Place them in a large pot and cover with cold water.

  2. 2

    Cook the Potatoes

    Bring the water to a boil over high heat. Once boiling, reduce the heat to medium and let the potatoes simmer for about 15-20 minutes, or until they are fork-tender.

  3. 3

    Drain and Steam

    Drain the potatoes in a colander and let them sit for a few minutes to allow the steam to escape.

  4. 4

    Whip the Potatoes

    In a large mixing bowl, add the drained potatoes. Begin to mash them using a potato masher or a ricer for a smoother texture.

  5. 5

    Add Butter and Cream

    Gradually add the unsalted butter and heavy cream to the mashed potatoes while continuing to whip until smooth and creamy.

  6. 6

    Season the Potatoes

    Season with salt, black pepper, and garlic powder to your taste. Mix well to combine.

  7. 7

    Garnish and Serve

    Transfer the butter-whipped potatoes to a serving dish and garnish with freshly chopped chives before serving.
