Number of Servings:
Ingredients:
- 4 pounds - Yukon gold potatoes peeled and cut into 1
- - coarse salt
- 1 3/4 cups - half-and-half
- 4 tablespoons - butter (1/2 stick)
- 2 tablespoons - parsley fresh, chopped, plus more for garnish
- 2 tablespoons - chives fresh, chopped, plus more for garnish
Directions:
STEP 1
Place potatoes in a large pot; cover with cold water by 1 inch, and add 1 teaspoon salt. Bring to a boil; reduce heat to medium-low, and simmer until potatoes are tender, 15 to 18 minutes. Drain; return potatoes to pot.
STEP 2
Stir potatoes over medium heat until dry (a film of starch will form on bottom of pot), about 1 minute. Remove from heat.
STEP 3
In a small saucepan, combine half-and-half and butter; bring to a simmer over medium heat. Pour half of hot liquid over potatoes. Mash just until smooth, adding more liquid to reach desired consistency. Stir in parsley and chives; season with salt. Garnish with more herbs.
