Instructions
Put prepared potatoes in the Instant Pot.
Pour enough water over the potatoes to just cover them.
Add salt.
Secure the lid and cook on high pressure for 10 minutes.
Quick release the pressure and test the potatoes for doneness - a fork inserted in the potato should easily release.
When potatoes are done, mash the potatoes to your desired consistency.
Stir in butter, half and half, sour cream and House Seasoning Blend.
You can add more half and half to reach your desired consistency.
Notes
Top:
Finish with bacon bits or fresh chives.
Best Mashers:
A ricer works best for the best texture but you can use a potato masher or an electric hand mixer.
Additions:
Cream cheese, heavy cream or chicken broth can be of use for this best instant pot mashed potatoes.
Warm up
: Before you add the sour cream, butter and half and half warm them in the microwave.
