Ingredients

6 servings

3 lbs yukon gold potatoes, peeled and cut into 2-inch chunks
1 cup water
1 tsp salt, plus more to taste
4 tbsp unsalted butter, cut into pieces
Chef's tip
Use a stick or block-style dairy-free butter - not a soft tub spread - and swap one-for-one.
½ cup heavy cream or whole milk, warmed
Chef's tip
Use an unsweetened variety so it won't add sweetness, especially in savory dishes.
¼ tsp black pepper, or to taste

For serving

2 tbsp fresh chives, thinly sliced (optional)

Instructions

1
Add the potato chunks, water, and 1 tsp salt to the Instant Pot insert. Lock the lid and set the valve to Sealing. Cook on High Pressure for 10 minutes.
2
When the cook time ends, carefully turn the valve to Venting to quick-release the pressure. Once the float valve drops, remove the lid.
