Ingredients

• 4 large Russet potatoes
• 6 tablespoons Unsalted butter
• 1 large Yellow onion
• 3 Celery stalks
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley
• 1 teaspoon Dried sage
• 1 teaspoon Dried thyme
• 0.5 cup Chicken or vegetable broth

Directions

Step 1

Peel the potatoes and cut them into 2-inch chunks. Place the chunks in a large pot and fill with enough water to cover the potatoes. Add a pinch of salt and bring the water to a boil over high heat.

Step 2

Reduce the heat to medium and cook the potatoes until they are fork-tender, about 15-20 minutes. Drain the potatoes and set them aside in a large mixing bowl.

Step 3

While the potatoes are cooking, finely dice the onion and celery. In a large skillet, melt 4 tablespoons of butter over medium heat. Add the onion and celery to the skillet and sauté until they are softened and translucent, about 7-10 minutes.

Step 4

Add the salt, black pepper, dried sage, and dried thyme to the onion-celery mixture. Stir to combine and continue cooking for 1 minute to bloom the spices.

Step 5

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a baking dish with 1 tablespoon of butter.

Step 6

Mash the potatoes in the mixing bowl using a potato masher or fork. Add the sautéed onion-celery mixture to the mashed potatoes and mix well.

Step 7

Stir in the chicken or vegetable broth, 1 tablespoon of melted butter, and chopped fresh parsley. Adjust seasoning to taste, adding more salt or pepper if needed.

Step 8

Transfer the potato stuffing mixture to the prepared baking dish, smoothing the top with the back of a spoon. Dot the top with the remaining tablespoon of butter.

Step 9

Bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and slightly crisp.

Step 10

Remove from the oven and let rest for 5 minutes before serving. Enjoy your delicious homemade potato stuffing!
