Method

Preparing the Potatoes

  1. 1

    Wash and Peel Potatoes

    Wash the russet potatoes under cold water to remove any dirt. Peel the potatoes using a vegetable peeler.

  2. 2

    Cut and Boil

    Cut the peeled potatoes into uniform chunks (about 1-2 inches) and place them in a large pot. Add the salt and cover with cold water. Bring to a boil over high heat.

  3. 3

    Cook Potatoes

    Once boiling, reduce heat to medium and let the potatoes cook for about 15-20 minutes or until they are fork-tender.

Mashing and Mixing

  1. 4

    Drain and Mash

    Once cooked, drain the potatoes in a colander. Return them to the pot and use a potato masher to mash until smooth and creamy.

  2. 5

    Add Butter and Sour Cream

    Add the unsalted butter and sour cream to the mashed potatoes. Mix until well combined and creamy.

  3. 6

    Incorporate Cheese and Bacon

    Stir in the shredded cheddar cheese, chopped bacon, and black pepper. Mix until evenly distributed.

  4. 7

    Adjust Seasonings

    Taste the mashed potatoes and adjust seasonings if necessary, adding more salt or pepper to your preference.

    Garnish
