• Gently shake to distrubute seasonings.
• Carefully open bag and remove contents.
• Sprinkle with 1 tbs chopped chives.
• Add salt and pepper to taste.
• Serve with sour cream if desired.

Steps:

• Place potatoes in a steamer basket fitted over a large pot of boiling water. Cover and steam for about 15 minutes, or until potatoes are tender.
• Transfer potatoes to a large bowl. Add the broth, and coarsely mash the potatoes. Stir in the sour cream and chives. Season with salt and pepper, to taste, and serve.

Steps:

• Cover the potatoes with 1 inch of cold water in a large saucepan. Bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer and cook until the potatoes are fork tender, about 20 minutes. In a small pot over low heat combine half-and-half and butter. Heat until hot but not simmering.
• Drain the potatoes in a colander, tossing to remove any excess water. Wipe the saucepan dry. Add the potatoes back to the saucepan and mash to a uniform consistency (or process through a food mill back into the dry pot). Give it a quick mix with a hand mixer to incorporate some air and ensure a smooth texture. Do not overmix or potatoes will become gummy.
• Using a flexible rubber spatula, fold in the melted butter and half-and-half mixture until just incorporated. Fold in sour cream and 1/4 cup chives and season with salt and pepper.
• Transfer to serving bowl and garnish with chopped chives.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 200 C.
• Boil potatoes till tender, about 15 minutes.
• Drain, cut in half, place in baking dish cut side up.
• Whisk together sour cream, cream, cheeses, chives, salt and pepper.
• Pour over potatoes.
• Cook 20 - 30 minutes until top is golden.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
• Skewer the baking potatoes with metal skewers, so they cook through faster and place them directly on the middle oven baking rack for 1 hour and 15 minutes.
• Meantime add the sour cream to a bowl with the whole-grain mustard, salt, white pepper and chopped chives, leaving a teaspoon back to sprinkle on top. Stir all the ingredients together and scatter over the remaining chives. If you are not eating it straight away store it covered in plastic wrap in the refrigerator.
• When the potatoes are ready with a crisp skin and soft inside, remove them from the oven, take them off the skewers and cut a cross in the top of each of them and slightly squeeze them so they open out and place them into bowl. Serve the potatoes with the chive sour cream on the side and have people help themselves.

Steps:

• Place potatoes in a large pot, cover with salted water by at least 3 inches and bring to a boil. Cover and cook potatoes until fork tender, about 30 minutes.
• Drain potatoes. Return pot to stove over medium-high heat and add butter. When butter foams, add drained potatoes and stir to coat. Smash each potato just to break the skin and cook until golden brown. Stir in chives, season with salt and freshly ground black pepper and serve.

Steps:

• Preheat your oven to 350°F and line the bottom of a 9x9-inch square baking pan with foil (I use release foil, but if you're not, grease the foil).
• With a really sharp knife (if you know how to do it) or a mandolin, cut the potatoes just about paper thin (like potato chips); place slices in a bowl of water and set aside.
• In a medium sauce pan, over medium heat, melt the butter then add the flour and cook, stirring constantly, for about 3-5 minutes or until it starts to smell nutty.
• Whisk in the broth and the cream then bring it to a boil.
• Remove from the heat and add the chives, sour cream, salt, and pepper.
• Spread a little of the chive sauce on the bottom of the lines pan then place two layers of potatoes on top of that.
• Spread more of the chive sauce on that, sprinkle with cheese and start again the two layers of potatoes, then the cream sauce, then the cheese (You should get about 4 to 5 layers if the potatoes are really thinly sliced).
• Cover with foil and bake for 45 minutes then remove the foil and bake for another 15 minutes (the potatoes should fork tender, and if they're not, just cover them and cook them for another 10-15 minutes).
• Let rest on your counter for at least 10 minutes before cutting.

Steps:

• Bring potatoes, salt and 6 cups water to a boil in a 4-quart saucepan over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally to ensure the salt has dissolved. Lower to a simmer, then cook until potatoes are tender, 18 to 20 minutes.
• Pour the water and potatoes into a colander in the sink and leave to air-dry for 5 minutes; you will see the salt start to form on the outside of the potatoes.
• Transfer the potatoes to a serving dish, then pour the melted butter and sprinkle the chives over the top. Toss together, then serve immediately.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Lightly grease a 9x13 inch baking pan.
• Pierce potatoes with a fork. Microwave the potatoes on high until they are soft; approximately 10 to 12 minutes.
• Cut the potatoes in half vertically. Scoop the inside out of the potatoes, until 1/4 inch of the potato shell remains.
• Heat oil to 365 degrees F (180 degrees C) in a deep fryer or a deep saucepan. Place the potatoes in hot oil, fry for 5 minutes. Drain potatoes on paper towels.
• Fill the potato shells with cheese and bacon bits. Arrange them in the prepared baking pan.
• Bake for 7 minutes, or until the cheese is melted. Serve hot with sour cream.

Steps:

• Arrange a rack in lower third of oven; preheat oven to 425°F. Prick potatoes all over with a fork and place on a foil-lined rimmed baking sheet. Place garlic on a piece of foil and drizzle with oil; season with salt and pepper. Fold edges of foil up and over garlic and crimp to close, creating a tight packet. Place on baking sheet with potatoes and roast until a knife slides easily through flesh of potatoes, 65-75 minutes. Let potatoes and garlic cool slightly.
• Halve potatoes lengthwise, then use a fork to scrape flesh into a large saucepan (include skins if you want to add a little texture). Squeeze garlic cloves from skins into pan. Smash mixture with a potato masher until mostly smooth with only a few lumps.
• Combine half-and-half and butter in a large measuring cup and pour 1 cup into potato mixture, stirring with a wooden spoon until incorporated and smooth. Stir in another cup half-and-half mixture; season generously with salt and pepper.
• If serving immediately, stir in remaining half-and-half mixture and top with chives.
• If making ahead, smooth potatoes to make a flat, even surface and pour remaining half-and-half mixture over (don't stir in). Remove from heat and cover with plastic wrap.
• Do Ahead
• Potatoes can be mashed 3 hours ahead. Store room temperature. Reheat over medium-low, stirring occasionally. Top with chives just before serving.

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Prick the potatoes with a fork and toss in the oil and some sea salt. Bake directly on the oven rack for 1 hr 20 mins until soft.
• Combine the soured cream, shallots, chives and some seasoning. Cut a cross in the top of each jacket and serve with the soured cream mixture.

Steps:

• Peel potatoes, wash carefully and boil in cold water. Salt as soon as water boils, and cook until done. Strain off water and pour sour cream over potatoes. Stir carefully. Sprinkle with chopped greens before serving.

Steps:

• Boil whole potatoes for 15 minutes.
• Cool; peel and grate into large bowl.
• (I grate the onion while the potatoes boil).
• Add remaining ingredients to potato/onion mixture; mix well.
• Place in greased 9x13 baking dish, or equivalent, and cover.
• Refrigerate overnight.
• Bake uncovered at 350 degrees for 45-60 minutes, until brown& bubbly.
• (Baking time depends on size of your baking dish; I sometimes put this in a deeper dish).

Steps:

• Mix all ingredients.
• Serve immediately. Garnish with additional fresh chives, if desired.

Steps:

• Spray 13x9-inch pan with cooking spray; set aside. In 4-quart Dutch oven, place potatoes; add enough water just to cover potatoes. Cover and heat to boiling; reduce heat. Simmer covered 20 to 25 minutes or until potatoes are tender; drain. Shake potatoes in Dutch oven over low heat to dry.
• Mash potatoes until no lumps remain. Add cream cheese, sour cream, salt and pepper; mix until well blended. Spoon into pan. Cover tightly with foil and refrigerate at least 8 hours but no longer than 24 hours. (To bake immediately, drizzle with butter and bake 30 minutes, adding onions for last 15 minutes of baking.)
• Heat oven to 350°F. Drizzle butter over potatoes. Cover and bake 30 minutes. Sprinkle onions over potatoes. Bake uncovered 15 to 20 minutes longer or until potatoes are hot.
