Whipped Potatoes Recipe

Whipped Potato Directions

1. 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. 2

   Boil the Potatoes

   Place the potato chunks in a large pot and cover them with water. Add a teaspoon of salt. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat and cook until the potatoes are tender, about 15-20 minutes.

3. 3

   Drain and Steam Dry

   Once tender, drain the potatoes and return them to the pot. Allow them to steam dry for a few minutes to remove excess moisture.

4. 4

   Mash the Potatoes

   Using a potato masher or ricer, mash the potatoes until smooth and creamy.

5. 5

   Add Butter and Cream

   Incorporate the unsalted butter and heavy cream into the mashed potatoes. Stir until well combined and the butter has melted.

6. 6

   Season

   Add salt, black pepper, and garlic powder to taste. Mix until evenly distributed.

7. 7

   Serve

   Transfer the whipped potatoes to a serving dish, garnish with chives if desired, and serve hot.
