Potatoes

Butter and Cream

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Potatoes

    Peel the russet potatoes and cut them into equal-sized chunks, about 1-2 inches in size.

  2. 2

    Boil the Potatoes

    Place the potato chunks in a large pot and cover them with cold water. Add 1 tablespoon of salt and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Once boiling, reduce the heat to medium and cook for about 15-20 minutes, or until the potatoes are fork-tender.

Mixing

  1. 3

    Drain the Potatoes

    Once cooked, drain the potatoes in a colander and let them sit for a minute to allow excess moisture to evaporate.

  2. 4

    Mash the Potatoes

    Return the drained potatoes to the pot. Use a potato masher or ricer to mash the potatoes until smooth.

  3. 5

    Add Butter and Cream

    While the potatoes are still hot, add 1 cup of unsalted butter and 1 cup of heavy cream to the mashed potatoes. Stir until well combined and creamy.

  4. 6

    Season the Mashed Potatoes

    Add 1 teaspoon of garlic powder and 1 teaspoon of black pepper. Mix well to incorporate the seasonings.

  5. 7

    Add Chives (Optional)

    If using, chop 2 tablespoons of chives and fold them into the mashed potatoes for added flavor and color.

Serving

  1. 8

    Serve Warm

    Transfer the mashed potatoes to a serving dish and serve warm. Enjoy your Misty's Signature Mashed Potatoes!
