Preparation
Step 1
Peel and dice potatoes, making sure all are in about 1 inch cubes.
Step 2
Place in a large pot and cover with water. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat and then reduce heat to medium low to maintain a rolling boil. Cook until potatoes are fork tender and you can easily pierce them with a fork when touched
Step 3
Remove the potatoes from the heat and drain off the water. Place the diced potatoes through a ricer and then place back into the warm pot. Alternatively, if you don't have a ricer, mash the potatoes with a masher and place back into the warm pot
Step 4
Add the cream, butter, cheddar and stir to incorporate. Season with salt and pepper and fold in the chopped chives before serving. Add more heavy cream or chicken stock to thin out / make smooth as needed.
