This is about as simple as it gets: classically prepared mashed potatoes - just potatoes, milk, butter and salt - get a generous handful of pretty chives stirred in. Be sure to add plenty of salt, and taste as you go; good mashed potatoes rely on it.

BASIL CHIVE RED POTATO MASH
This recipe is courtesy of Dave Lieberman from the Food Network. These potatoes are creamy and rich but the fresh herbs give them a really fresh taste. The color and texture that the potato skins give the mash is wonderful, and it also means less work because you get to skip the peeling!

Tips:
- Choose the right potatoes: Red potatoes are a good choice for mashed potatoes because they have a thin skin and a creamy texture. Yukon Gold potatoes are also a good option.
- Boil the potatoes until they are tender: You can check if the potatoes are done by piercing them with a fork. If the fork goes through easily, the potatoes are done.
- Drain the potatoes thoroughly: This will prevent the mashed potatoes from being watery.
- Mash the potatoes until they are smooth: You can use a potato masher, a ricer, or a food processor to mash the potatoes.
- Add milk and butter: Milk and butter will help to make the mashed potatoes creamy and flavorful. You can also add other ingredients, such as sour cream, cream cheese, or herbs.
- Season the mashed potatoes to taste: Salt and pepper are essential seasonings for mashed potatoes. You can also add other spices, such as garlic powder, onion powder, or paprika.

Mashed potatoes are a delicious and versatile side dish that can be served with a variety of main dishes. They are also a great way to use up leftover potatoes. With just a few simple ingredients, you can make a delicious and creamy mashed potato dish that your family and friends will love.
