Homestyle Potatoes Recipe

Homestyle Potatoes Directions

1. 1

   Prepare the Potatoes

   Peel and cut the Russet potatoes into uniform cubes. Rinse them under cold water to remove excess starch.

2. 2

   Boil the Potatoes

   In a large pot, add the cubed potatoes and enough water to cover them. Bring to a boil, add 1 tsp of salt, and cook for about 15-20 minutes until fork-tender.

3. 3

   Drain and Mash

   Once the potatoes are cooked, drain the water and return the potatoes to the pot. Use a potato masher to mash the potatoes to your desired consistency.

4. 4

   Add Butter and Cream

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

5. 5

   Season the Potatoes

   Stir in the garlic powder, black pepper, and additional salt if needed. Mix until everything is well incorporated.

6. 6

   Garnish (Optional)

   If desired, sprinkle chopped chives on top for garnish before serving.
