Ingredients
- 2 pounds russet potatoes
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 0.75 cups heavy cream
- 3 tablespoons prepared horseradish
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoons black pepper
- 2 tablespoons fresh chives (optional, for garnish)
Directions
Step 1
Peel the russet potatoes and cut them into evenly sized chunks, about 2 inches wide.
Step 2
Place the potato chunks into a large pot and cover them with cold water. Add a pinch of salt to the water.
Step 3
Bring the water to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce the heat to a gentle simmer. Cook the potatoes for 20-25 minutes, or until they are fork-tender.
Step 4
While the potatoes are cooking, warm the heavy cream in a small saucepan over low heat. Do not let it boil.
Step 5
Once the potatoes are fully cooked, drain them well and return them to the pot.
Step 6
Add the butter to the hot potatoes and mash them using a potato masher or a ricer until smooth and creamy.
Step 7
Slowly stir in the warmed heavy cream, mixing until the potatoes reach your desired consistency.
Step 8
Stir in the prepared horseradish, salt, and black pepper. Taste and adjust the seasoning if needed.
Step 9
Transfer the mashed potatoes to a serving dish and garnish with chopped fresh chives, if using.
Step 10
Serve immediately and enjoy!
