Ingredients
- 4 large Russet potatoes
- 0.5 cup Coconut milk
- 2 tablespoons Ghee
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Chopped fresh chives
Directions
Step 1
Peel the Russet potatoes and cut them into evenly-sized chunks, about 2 inches each, to ensure even cooking.
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
Set the pot over high heat and bring to a boil. Once boiling, reduce the heat to a simmer and cook the potatoes for 15-20 minutes, until they are tender and can be easily pierced with a fork.
Step 4
While the potatoes are cooking, warm the coconut milk in a small saucepan over low heat. This ensures it blends smoothly without cooling the potatoes when mixed.
Step 5
Once the potatoes are cooked, drain them in a colander and return them to the pot.
Step 6
Add the ghee, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper to the potatoes in the pot.
Step 7
Using a potato masher or an electric hand mixer, mash the potatoes until smooth and creamy. Gradually add the warmed coconut milk to reach your desired consistency.
Step 8
Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary, adding more salt and pepper according to your preference.
Step 9
Transfer the mashed potatoes to a serving bowl and garnish with chopped fresh chives.
Step 10
Serve warm and enjoy this creamy and flavorful Paleo classic with your favorite main dish.
