Serving count not stated for this recipe, so quantities are shown as written.

Ingredients

  • 2 Tbsp garlic, minced
  • 2 lbs russet or Yukon Gold potatoes, cleaned
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
  • 3/4 cup chicken broth
  • 1/2 tsp pepper
  • 1 1/4 tsp salt
  • 4 Tbsp butter
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1/2 cup sour cream

Method

  1. Peel the potatoes, cut them into even chunks and place them in the pressure cooker with the chicken broth poured over.
  2. Lock the lid with the valve closed and steam the potatoes for 7 minutes, then quick-release the pressure with the valve guarded by a towel.
  3. Drain the potatoes through a colander set over a bowl so the hot broth is saved rather than lost.
  4. Return the potatoes to the warm pot and add the butter, milk, sour cream, minced garlic, parsley, salt and pepper.
  5. Mash everything together with a potato masher until the texture looks right, loosening the mash with a splash of the reserved broth at a time if it feels stiff.
