Ingredients
- 2 1/2 lbs potatoes, peeled and halved
- 2 tsp salt, divided
- 1 stick butter (1 cup)
- 1/2 cup cream cheese or sour cream
- 1/8 cup grated parmesan cheese (optional)
- 1/4 cup broth or milk (optional, for texture)
- a few sprigs of herbs (sage, thyme, etc.)
Instructions
1
Potatoes: Put your potatoes in the Instant Pot and cover with about 6 cups of water – enough to be completely covered. Add 2 teaspoons of salt. Cook on the steam setting for 12 minutes. Release steam right away. Drain the potatoes. They should be fork tender.
2
Garlic Herb Butter: Melt your butter in a large skillet. Add the garlic and herbs and let it just gently cook and infuse the butter with flavor for 10-15 minutes. Pull the herbs and garlic out, and reserve your flavored butter.
3
Mash and Mix: Using a potato masher or the back of a wooden spoon, mash the potatoes right in the Instant Pot. Add the garlic herb butter, sour cream, Parmesan cheese, and the rest of the salt. Stir to combine. Season with more salt to taste – be generous!
