Boursin Mashed Potatoes are the easy side dish you need for weeknights, holidays and everything in between! I like using either the garlic and herb cheese or shallot and chive.

Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 2 lb red potatoes, washed, scrubbed and cut into chunks
  • 5.2 oz container Boursin cheese, garlic and herb flavor or shallot and chive
  • 3 tbsp salted butter
  • 1/2 cup milk or chicken stock, plus more if needed for desired consistency
  • 1 tsp salt
  • optional: fresh chives for topping

Instructions

  1. Place potatoes in a pot and cover with cool water. Bring water to a boil, then reduce to a more gentle boil and cook just until tender about 15-20 minutes. Watch closely and be careful not to overcook. 
  2. Drain well and return to the pot. To the pot, add Boursin, butter, milk (or stock), and salt. Use a potato masher to mash until desired creaminess is reached. You can add more salt to taste or additional milk/stock if it’s too dry. 
  3. Enjoy topped with fresh chives if desired.
