When cooked just right, the potatoes will be tender but should still hold their shape.

Recipe information

  • Total Time

    45 minutes

  • Yield

    Makes 4 servings

Ingredients

4 large Yukon Gold potatoes (about 1 1/2 pounds), peeled, cut into 1/2" cubes
1 1/2 cups half-and-half
4 tablespoons (1/2 stick) unsalted butter
Kosher salt
1/4 cup chopped fresh chives

Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Combine potatoes, half-and-half, and butter in a large saucepan; season with salt. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, and simmer very gently, stirring occasionally, until potatoes are tender (the tip of a paring knife meets no resistance) and sauce is thick, 25-35 minutes.

    Step 2

    Season with salt; stir in most of the chives. Top with remaining chives before serving.
