Ingredients

Servings
  • 3 lbs russet potato peeled and chopped
  • 5 Tbsp butter divided, plus more for serving if desired
  • 8 cups kale about 1 large bunch, chopped; remove tough stems first
  • 1 cup half-and-half or buttermilk
  • 1/2 tsp salt or, to taste
  • 4 tsp horseradish sauce

Instructions

  1. Bring a large pot of water to a boil, add the chopped potatoes, and simmer for about 10-15 minutes until the potatoes are very tender. (The tip of a sharp knife should slide in easily.)
  2. Drain the potatoes and set them aside.
  3. In the same pot, melt 2 Tbsp of butter, and sautee the chopped kale over low-medium heat for 5-10 minutes until soft.
  4. Take off the heat, add the potatoes back to the pot along with the rest of the butter, half-and-half, salt, and horseradish sauce. Mash together with a potato masher until all the ingredients are fully incorporated.
  5. Adjust seasonings to taste, and serve with more butter if desired.
