Instructions
- Put 180 ml Water and 1 teaspoon Sea salt into the Instant Pot. Place the metal trivet in the pot. Add 1 kg Potato (chopped) on top of the trivet.
- Select the Pressure Cook setting and set the pressure to high. Set the timer to 10 minutes. When finished cooking, quick release the pressure.
- Remove the potatoes and trivet and drain all the liquid. Return the potatoes to the pot. Add 180 ml Whole milk, 85 g Butter and 15 g Fresh chives.
- Mash the potatoes with a potato masher until they are smooth. If the potatoes are too thick, add a little more milk until the desired texture is achieved.
Notes
- If you want to add some extra fibre keep them skin on.
- Cream cheese (garlic, herb, or plain all work) stirred in at the end.
- Fresh herbs (chives and parsley are nice and fresh, but woody herbs like thyme and rosemary are delicious too)
- Olive oil: use this instead of butter for a creamy vegan mashed potato
- Add some veg by cooking some cauliflower with the potatoes and mashing them together.
- Cheese and chopped cooked bacon (total comfort food), added at the end.
- A spoonful of pesto in mashed potato is amazing.
- Like things spicy? Add a spoonful of chipotle paste. It makes it a great colour too.
- Add some greens with some finely chopped spinach.
- A pinch of smoked paprika adds lots of flavour.
- Another vegan way to make creamy potatoes is with hummus.
- A spoonful of horseradish is another way to make it spicy.
- For some Spanish flavour, add some chopped cooked chorizo at the end.
