Peel the russet potatoes and cut them into uniform chunks, about 2 inches each, to ensure even cooking.
Place the potato chunks in a large pot and cover them with cold water. Add a pinch of salt to the water.
Bring the water to a boil over medium-high heat. Reduce the heat to medium and let the potatoes simmer for about 15-20 minutes, or until they are fork-tender.
While the potatoes are cooking, fill a small saucepan with water and bring it to a boil. Add the frozen peas and cook them for about 2-3 minutes, until they are bright green and tender, then drain and set aside.
Once the potatoes are cooked, drain them thoroughly and return them to the pot over low heat. This helps to evaporate excess moisture, making the mash creamy instead of watery.
Add the ghee to the warm potatoes and use a potato masher to begin mashing them to your desired consistency.
Gradually stir in the coconut milk, continuing to mash the potatoes until smooth and creamy. Add more coconut milk if needed, depending on the desired consistency.
Stir in the cooked peas, garlic powder, salt, and freshly ground black pepper. Mix until everything is well combined.
Garnish with chopped fresh chives before serving. Serve hot and enjoy your Whole30-compliant side dish!
