Ingredients

  • 4 medium Russet potatoes
  • 4 tablespoons Unsalted butter
  • 1 cup Milk
  • 1 teaspoon Salt
  • 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
  • 1 Chicken bouillon cube
  • 1 tablespoon Cornstarch
  • 1 tablespoon All-purpose flour
  • 2 cups Water

Directions

Step 1

Peel and cube the russet potatoes into equal-sized pieces for even cooking.

Step 2

Place the cubed potatoes in a large pot of salted water and bring to a boil. Cook until the potatoes are tender and easily pierced with a fork, about 15 minutes.

Step 3

Drain the potatoes and return them to the pot. Mash the potatoes over low heat using a potato masher or hand mixer until smooth.

Step 4

Add the unsalted butter, milk, salt, and black pepper to the mashed potatoes. Stir or beat until creamy and well combined. Adjust seasoning to taste.

Step 5

To make the gravy, dissolve the chicken bouillon cube in 2 cups of hot water, stirring until fully dissolved.

Step 6

In a small bowl, mix the cornstarch and all-purpose flour with 2 tablespoons of water to create a smooth slurry.

Step 7

Heat the chicken bouillon mixture in a saucepan over medium heat. Gradually whisk in the slurry until the gravy thickens, about 3-5 minutes.

Step 8

Season the gravy with a pinch of salt and pepper, adjusting to taste.

Step 9

Serve the warm mashed potatoes in bowls, topped generously with the savory gravy. Enjoy your homemade KFC-style mashed potatoes!
