Steps:
- Place potatoes in a large pot. Add enough cold water to cover the potatoes by about 1 inch. Add plenty of salt to the water. Bring to a boil over high heat. Once the water boils, reduce the heat so that the water is simmering. Simmer uncovered until the potatoes are very tender when pierced with a knife, about 10-12 minutes. Drain the potatoes really well; return them to the pot.
- Turn the stove to low heat and gently shake the pan of potatoes over the low flame for about 1 minute, just to make sure that any excess moisture evaporates. You want really dry potatoes!
- Use a potato masher, potato ricer, or food mill to mash the potatoes. Add the butter and enough half-and-half or milk until the potatoes are very creamy (you might not need all of the milk, so add it gradually and stop when the potatoes reach the desired consistency). Whisk in the sour cream and chives until completely combined. Taste and season with salt and pepper. Transfer to a serving bowl and top with additional butter or chives, if desired.

Steps:
- Put the potatoes into a large pot and cover with cold water. Bring to a boil over medium heat and add a generous pinch of salt. Cook for 8 minutes so they are tender but still slightly firm.

INSTANT POT MASHED POTATOES WITH SOUR CREAM AND CHIVES
This recipe gives you everything you want in a dish of mashed potatoes: supreme creaminess from both butter and sour cream, a deep potato flavor, a little Parmesan for a salty tang, and chives for color and freshness. That said, if you want to bring the fat content down, you can use less butter (as little as 2 tablespoons will still work). But don't skimp on the sour cream, which is necessary for both flavor and texture. This is one of 10 recipes from Melissa Clark's "Dinner in an Instant: 75 Modern Recipes for Your Pressure Cooker, Multicooker, and Instant Pot" (Clarkson Potter, 2017).

Tips:
- Choose the right potatoes: Yukon Gold or red potatoes are the best choices for this recipe, as they hold their shape well and have a creamy texture.
- Cut the potatoes into even-sized pieces: This will help them cook evenly.
- Don't overcrowd the pan: If you overcrowd the pan, the potatoes will steam instead of roast and won't get crispy.
- Roast the potatoes at a high temperature: This will help them get crispy on the outside and tender on the inside.
- Season the potatoes well: Use a generous amount of salt, pepper, and garlic powder to flavor the potatoes.
- Add the sour cream and chives at the end: This will prevent the sour cream from curdling and the chives from wilting.
Conclusion:
These zesty potatoes with sour cream and chives are the perfect side dish for any occasion. They're easy to make, delicious, and sure to please everyone at the table. So next time you're looking for a new side dish, give this recipe a try!
