Ingredients
- 2 1/2 pounds baby red potatoes, cut into 1 1/2-inch chunks (unpeeled)
- 3/4 to 1 cup half-and-half, warmed (see Tips)
- 1 Tablespoon salted butter
- 4 ounces Gorgonzola cheese
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
Instructions
- Bring a large pot of water to a boil and add the potato chunks. Boil the potatoes just until they are tender, 10 to 15 minutes. Drain the potatoes in a colander. Place them in a large bowl. Mash them lightly with a fork. Stir 3/4 cup of the half-and-half and the butter into the potatoes. Add more half-and-half, as needed, if the potatoes seem too dry. Stir in the cheese and season with salt and pepper, to taste.
- Tip:
- To warm the half-and-half, just pour it into a glass measuring cup and heat it in the microwave or in a small saucepan on the stove. It should only take a short time, but watch it closely so it doesn't bubble up and over the cup.
