Omg! These are THE BEST mashed potatoes EVER! Do it with the yukon gold. Just do it. Made this for Christmas dinner 2021 and it was a huge hit! I want to make these ever day! Thank you so much for this and your instant pot short ribs! Best dinner ive had in a LONG time. 🙏🏻😊
I LOVE LOVE hearing that! Thanks so much for sharing!
@@AMindFullMom So i have a family loved recipe that uses washed and scrubbed red potatoes quartered and skins left on. Do you se any issues with skins being left on? Also, I use sour cream and a bit of heavy whipping cream.
@@shawnwilt7196 If your family loves the skins--leave them on! They just won't be as smooth, but no issue. And the heavy whipping cream will be decadent and delish! Enjoy and Happy Thanksgiving.
Thanks for the tips! I’ve made the mistake of whipping my potatoes and always wondered where I went wrong! I’m definitely going to follow this recipe; no more gummy potatoes!
Happy to help!
What a timely recipe! One of my family's favorite generational recipes is potatoes mashed with butter, sour cream, and cream cheese, then dotted with butter and baked as a casserole. It's one of the most delicious things I have ever eaten, but it can go awry. My greatest challenge with the recipe has been cooking the potatoes so they're fully cooked but not falling apart. This video will solve that problem for me and streamline the whole process!!! I really appreciate your tips, and your inclusion of plant-based substitutions. Thank you very much!
You are so very welcome! I hope you enjoy these potatoes.
Chicken broth or bullion instead of water would make these out of this world
Feel free to use that!
I made this a few weeks ago and my kids loovveee them !! I used the russet because that’s all I had at the time and they ate all of it . Thank you so much 😊
Wonderful! I love hearing you enjoyed--thanks for taking the time to let me know :)
Thank you, thank you for the specific information ie. Size of instant pot with amount of water. Other channels will just assume you are using the same one they have. I dry mine out too, I just never realized you could do it with the sauté function. Take care.
So happy you found this video helpful
Kristen these are fantastic! thank you, I am going to try this today I usually hate making mashed potatoes and when it comes to making cottage pie mine never seem to be cooked properly and are lumpy so I'm really excited to give this a go! Thank you so much I hope you and your family are well x
Thank you so much! I hope you have delicious (& Lump free) results
Thank you for this great recipe. I'm still learning how to use my instapot.. this was so helpful!
Happy to help!
Can’t wait to try this! You rock, as always!
Thanks so much Susan!
FAB lots of love from London
Thank you!
Yukon potatoes. Evenly cubed peeled potatoes. 1 cup cold water for 6 quart 3 quart IP or 1 1/2 cups cold water 8 quart instant pot and one tsp salt. Pressure cook for 10 minutes. Allow natural release for 5 minutes. Drain potatoes. Do not rinse. Add potatoes back. Turn on sauté for a minute. Turn off. Mash the potatoes with potato masher or fork. Add 1/2 cup warm milk and 3 TBS warm butter. Or non dairy milk. Microwave butter for one minute. Secret ingredient. Add Sour cream. Add salt to taste. How do we cook garlic to add it?
You have two options. You can opt to add whole garlic gloves to the cubed potatoes, for soft sweeter garlic, or simply stir in garlic powder with the milk.
This came out perfectly thanks
Great to hear!
Please tell us how and when to add garlic. Love garlic mashed potatoes!!! Thanks!
Hi Kyle! You can add 2-3 whole garlic cloves while pressure cooking the potatoes. The garlic will soften and then blend into the potatoes when mashed. Alternatively, you can add garlic powder after cooking.
Thank you so much!!!! Great Recipe & the 'secrets' !!!! thank....gotta go....making them right now! Cheers!!!
Hope you enjoy
Your recipe worked deliciously! love the tips too:)
Awesome! Thank you for sharing!
I used chicken broth for my cooking liquid then drained it and added my own homemade roasted garlic butter. I used red potatoes with the skins on. I will never boil potatoes on the stove again. These turned out so creamy without milk.
Thanks for sharing! So happy you enjoyed!
I hate to peel potatoes, so I cook them with skins on. Give them a quick dunk in ice water and the skins slip right off., but they still stay warm.
You are the best
Well, thank you!
I love this
Thank you!
Thank you 🙏
You’re welcome 😊
Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!!!!!
You are so welcome!
did it not occur to you at any point after you removed the lid that your potatoes are still half raw?
I can assure you they were perfectly cooked.
What is the easiest and safest way to drain the water off of the potatoes after they’re done pressure cooking?
I would simply put a strainer in the sink and remove the inner pot with pot holders and drain the way you would if cooking on the stove.
Great channel and videos! I laughed out loud when you said YUCK to using a beater...a long-standing debate I've had with my sisters (I'm a guy and I prefer to mash). I sent them your video link. :) Thanks for having a great cooking channel!
LOL! I am sure they did NOT appreciate my comment....but obviously I side with you!
@@AMindFullMom 😁
My instinct would be to rinse the potatoes to get rid of extra starch after cooking. Instead can you soak the potatoes in water to get rid of the starch before adding to the instant pot to cook? I do that with fries before cooking in the air fryer.
You certainly could, though I don't find that to be necessary.
Can you freeze the mashed potatoes that might be left over?
Absolutely! To freeze leftover mashed potatoes, allow them to cool and then place in a freezer-safe bag. Freeze for up to 2 months.
HAHAHAHAHAHA!!! Sour Cream in mashed potatoes is a family secret? I guess potatoes in mashed potatoes is also a family secret!
You would be surprised at how many people don't do this.
I have stopped using the 'good old fashioned' hand masher and use a potato ricer instead. Not only are the results far superior, you end up with a more consistent result.
Any additional ingredients can be mixed in easily with a wooden spoon.
I do love my potato ricer--but that is something not everyone has. I agree it is a wonderful tool though.
What about keeping them hot (warm) till mealtime
You can leave them on the keep warm function :)
Mash is only as good as the potatoes you use. I’m going to have a go at cooking in my pressure cooker this evening
I agree. The type of potatoes makes a huge difference. I hope you enjoy!
Is there any measurements?
You can find the full printable recipe here: amindfullmom.com/instant-pot-mashed-potatoes/
3 pounds russet or Yukon Gold potatoes
1-1 ½ cups cold water *1 cup for 6-quart, 1.5 for 8-quart
1 ½ teaspoon kosher salt divided
3 tablespoons butter melted
½ cup milk or cream warm

Can you replace Sour cream with Greek yogurt?
Yes, just be sure to use plain Greek yogurt.
Where have you been?
Hey! I have been in the process of moving out of state, getting my son situated for college, and dealing with lung infection. I will be back soon!
@@AMindFullMom ugh I hope you feel better soon
@@jaytracks THanks so much!!
Its a insta pot you dont have to cut into pcs
They absorb too much water if you cut up the potatoes
That is why I like to saute them a bit after they cook to remove excess water.
