Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 pounds Yukon gold potatoes
  • 1 1/2 pounds russet or red skin potatoes
  • 2 tablespoons of Kosher Salt
  • 1 cup Alfredo sauce
  • 1 cup three Italian Asiago Parmesan, and Romano cheese blend
  • 4 cloves garlic
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 1/3 cup chopped flat-leaf parsley
  • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • flaky sea salt to taste
  • freshly cracked black peppercorns to taste

Instructions

  • Rinse potatoes and cut off any bad spots. I leave the potato skin on for more flavor.
  • Cut the potatoes in half or quarters, and make sure the potato chunks are all about the same size so they're all done simultaneously.
  • Put the potatoes into a stockpot and fill the pot until the potatoes are just covered.
  • Add two tablespoons of Kosher salt to the pot.
  • Place the potatoes over medium-high heat and cook for 12-15 minutes.
  • While the potatoes boil, place a saucepan over medium heat and melt the unsalted butter.
  • When the butter is melted, add the Alfredo sauce, heavy cream, minced garlic, and chopped flat-leaf parsley.
  • Test the potatoes to make sure they can be pierced with a fork.
  • Drain your potatoes. I let my cooked potatoes drain in a colander for 4-5 minutes.
  • Place the potatoes back into the stockpot and place it over low heat for 3-4 minutes.
  • Use your preferred potato masher and begin smashing the potatoes. Add the melted butter and Alfredo sauce mixture.
  • Mix the potatoes until they are your preferred consistency. Add the three-cheese blend. I like mine smashed potatoes to be a little chunky but feel free to mash them until they're smooth; it's your call.
  • Add more salt. I prefer finishing salt and more freshly cracked black peppercorns at this stage of the recipe.
  • Serve
