Yukon
gold potatoes work great for this recipe because of their color. If
you can’t find Yukon golds, regular russets work fine.

6 Cups
Total Time: 50 Minutes
Prepare and Roast:
6–7 cups Yukon gold potatoes, (2 1/4 lb.), peeled and cut

2 T. olive oil

Prepare potatoes for roasting by peeling and cutting
into large chunks. Toss with oil. Place in 425° oven on lowest

least once.
Mash potatoes in large bowl, leaving them slightly
chunky. Stir in buttermilk, butter, and chives. Season with salt
and pepper.
