INSTANT POT MASHED POTATOES

INSTANT POT MASHED POTATOES
Blessings friends and welcome back to my kitchen. Today I’m going to show you how to make creamy and delicious mashed potatoes using your Instant Pot . This traditional potato side dish goes so well with so many things such as roast turkey , roast beef or chicken . Pretty much any large gathering or feast could use some mashed potatoes! BUT Instant Pot mashed potatoes can also be made any day of the week because it is so easy to make. So let’s get started!
INGREDIENTS:
6 medium yellow potatoes
1 cup cold water
pinch of salt
4 tablespoons butter
1/4 cup milk
salt and pepper to taste
Garnish with chopped chives or green onions if desired
METHOD:
1. Wash and peel the potatoes. Place the peeled potatoes in a bowl of cold water to remove excess starch and to keep the potatoes from turning brown.
2. Cut the potatoes into 1.5 inch pieces. That is like cutting each potato into 12 equal pieces.
3. Place the cut potatoes into the Instant Pot with 1 cup of cold water and a pinch of salt.
4. Set the Instant Pot on high pressure for 6 minutes. When the Instant Pot is done, let it naturally release for 15 minutes. Release the rest of the steam by turning the Steam Release Knob to venting. Open the Instant Pot and drain the potatoes in a strainer. Return the potatoes to the Instant Pot.
5. Add 3 of the 4 tablespoons of butter and the 1/4 cup of milk to the potatoes.
6. Using a hand mixer, whip the potatoes with the milk and butter until creamy and smooth, about 30-45 seconds.
7. Spoon the mashed potatoes into a serving bowl, and garnish with the last tablespoon of butter placed on top, and sprinkle with chopped green onions or chives, if desired.
