I think these potatoes really speak for themselves. There are countless ways to make great mashed potatoes. This is my favorite way though. Lots of fresh chives and sour cream with Yukon gold potatoes is the perfect compliment to just about anything. I leave the peels on the potatoes, but you can peel them if you like. I just used my potato masher, I like them to be a little chunky. You can also use a food mill to bet a finer texture. They are so perfect, they don’t even need gravy!
Yield: Serves 4
4 - 6 Yukon gold potatoes
1 cup sour cream
1/2 - 1 cup milk
small bag or a large bunch of chives, chopped
kosher salt to taste
pepper
Wash potatoes. Peel if desired. Cute in quarters and add to a saucepan. Cover potatoes with water, add salt, and bring to a boil. Boil over medium heat until potatoes are very tender.
Drain potatoes and add back to the saucepan. Add sour cream and 1/2 cup milk. Mash potatoes with a potato masher. Add more milk until you get the desired consistency. Add chives, adjust salt and pepper to taste.
