Instructions
- Peel russet potatoes and cut into 1" cubes
- Place potatoes in a large stock pot. Fill the pot with cold water until the potatoes are fully submerged and the top layer is covered in at least 2" of water. Pour 2 tbsp of salt into the pot.
- Place the pot on the stove and bring the water to a boil. Once boiling reduce the heat to a simmer and cover the pot
- Allow the potatoes to simmer for at least 10 minutes - potatoes should be soft when pierced with a fork.
- Remove the pot from the stove and drain the water. Immediately return the hot potatoes to the stockpot and cover the pot to retain the heat.
- Place a stick of butter, half and half and sour cream in the warm pot. Cover the pot and wait a few minutes for the butter to melt
- Using an electric hand mixer, mix the potatoes until almost fully whipped. Best if served immediately!
Notes
- If you are making these potatoes ahead of time and serving later, allow the mashed potatoes to cool fully then add some butter and milk on top, cover and place in the fridge until you are ready to reheat
