Instructions

  1. Peel the potatoes if desired *see note.
  2. Quarter the potatoes, place in a pot of cold salted water with the garlic. Bring to a boil, reduce heat to a simmer and cook uncovered 15 minutes. Drain very well.
  3. Add the melted butter to the potatoes and mash with a hand masher. Add sour cream and continue mashing to reach desired consistency. Stir in chives and season with salt and pepper. Serve hot.

Notes

  • *For a smoother mashed potato, peel the potatoes either before or after boiling.Yukon gold potatoes have a thin skin and can be left on for a more rustic dish. If using russet potatoes, they should be peeled.Don't worry too much about the size of the chopped garlic, it will cook enough to flavor the potatoes and mash along with them.Use a hand masher, these can be mashed smooth or left a little bit chunky for a "smashed potatoes" recipe.Drain the potatoes well for the best consistency.To Make AheadFollow the recipe below and allow the sour cream potatoes to cool completely. Once cooled, store in an air-tight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. Heat in the oven or microwave.
