1
Prepare the Potatoes
Peel the Russet potatoes and cut them into halves or quarters to ensure even cooking.
2
Boil the Potatoes
Place the potatoes in a large pot, cover with water, and add 1 teaspoon of salt. Bring to a boil over high heat.
3
Cook the Potatoes
Reduce the heat to medium and let the potatoes simmer for about 15-20 minutes, or until they are tender when pierced with a fork.

4
Drain the Potatoes
Once cooked, drain the potatoes in a colander and let them sit for a few minutes to release excess steam.
5
Add Ingredients
Transfer the drained potatoes back to the pot. Add 4 tablespoons of butter and 1 cup of heavy cream.
6
Mash the Potatoes
Using a potato masher or fork, mash the potatoes until smooth and creamy. Adjust the consistency by adding more cream if needed.
7
Add Chives
Finely chop the fresh chives and fold them into the mashed potatoes for added flavor.

8
Plate and Serve
Spoon the chive mashed potatoes into a serving bowl and garnish with additional chopped chives if desired. Serve warm.
