Ingredients
Instructions
- Place the sealed bag of potatoes in the microwave and cook on high for 5-6 minutes. Let the bag cool for 2 minutes before opening.
- Transfer the cooked potatoes to a bowl. Add ¼ cup water or milk and 1-2 tablespoons of black truffle butter to taste. Mash with a potato masher or fork until smooth. Season with a generous pinch of salt and pepper. For a creamier texture, add more splashes of water or milk.
- Stovetop alternative: Place potatoes in a large pot and cover with salted water by 2 inches. Bring to a boil, then cook until easily pierced with a fork, 15-18 minutes. Drain and mash with water or milk and truffle butter as above. Season to taste.
- Optional: Stir in grated Parmesan cheese and chopped parsley for cheesy truffle mashed potatoes.
Recipe Tips
For extra creamy potatoes, use milk instead of water.
Adjust truffle butter amount to your preference-start with 1 tablespoon and add more if desired.
If using the stovetop method, salt the water generously for well-seasoned potatoes.
