1
Prepare the Potatoes
Peel the Russet potatoes and cut them into evenly sized chunks. Rinse them under cold water to remove excess starch.
2
Boil the Potatoes
Place the potatoes in a large pot and cover with cold water. Add salt and bring to a boil. Cook until the potatoes are fork-tender, about 15-20 minutes.
3
Drain and Mash
Drain the cooked potatoes and return them to the pot. Use a potato masher or ricer to mash the potatoes until smooth.
4
Add Butter and Cream
Stir in the butter and heavy cream until fully incorporated. Adjust the amount of cream for desired consistency.
5
Mix in Chives
Fold in the chopped chives and season with black pepper. Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary.
6
Serve
Transfer the chive mashed potatoes to a serving bowl and garnish with additional chives if desired.
