Step 1

On a cutting board, peel the potatoes. Place the potatoes in a large bowl of cold water after peeling to prevent discoloration.

Step 2

Dice the potatoes into 1-inch (2-cm) cubes.

Step 3

Add the potatoes to a large pot of cold water, along with the salt. Bring to a soft boil over high heat, then reduce the heat to low and simmer for about 12 minutes, until the potatoes are fork-tender.

Step 4

Drain the potatoes in a colander, then return to the pot. Increase the heat to medium-high and stir the potatoes around for 2-3 minutes to evaporate any excess moisture.

Step 5

Transfer the potatoes to a large bowl and mash with a potato masher, potato ricer, or by pushing through a fine mesh sieve with a spatula.

Step 6

Add the melted butter and stir to incorporate, then season with salt to taste.

Step 7

In a small saucepan, combine the heavy cream, rosemary, and garlic. Bring to a simmer over low heat, let simmer for a few minutes, then remove the pot from the heat and strain through a fine mesh sieve.

Step 8

Gradually add the cream mixture to the potatoes, a little at a time, stirring until fully incorporated.

Step 9

Top with a pat of butter, freshly ground black pepper, and a sprinkle with chives, or gravy, if desired.
