Instructions

Instant Pot Cooking Instructions

Wash and peel the 4 potatoes. Cut the potatoes into eights, making equal sized pieces. Add 2 cups of water into the Instant Pot and add your potatoes. Put the lid on the Instant Pot, then set to MANUAL or HIGH for 6 minutes. Once the cooking cycle is complete, perform a Quick Release. Drain any remaining water, then follow the assembly instructions.

Stovetop Cooking Instructions

In a large pot, boil the potatoes until tender, about 10-12 minutes. You should be able to pierce them easily with a fork. Drain the potatoes and then place them back into the pot. Then follow the assembly instructions.

Assembly Instructions

Add 2 tbsp melted butter and ¼ cup milk and mash with a potato masher until smooth and creamy, adding more milk if necessary.
Add the rest of the ingredients (¼ cup sour cream, ⅓ tsp salt, ground pepper to taste, ½ tsp onion powder, ½ tsp garlic powder, 1 tbsp horseradish, 3 chopped green onions) into the potatoes, and use a spoon to mix until well combined, adding more horseradish if you like a stronger flavor.

Notes

Recipe copyright The Foreign Fork. For educational and personal use.

Potatoes: I use Russet or Idaho potatoes
Sour Cream: You can use light or normal sour cream, but the potatoes will have a better texture with normal sour cream
Green Onions: They are also called scallions. These are optional, but delicious.
Horseradish: You can buy horseradish fresh, but I normally buy it in the jar.

You can also use an Instant Pot to cook your potatoes. See the instructions in the recipe card for guidance.
This recipe was made using an 8 qt Instant Pot, but measurements will work the same in a 6 qt.
You can use a potato ricer if you so choose, or just use a potato masher
To store, put in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days.
