Preparation:

Step 1
• Place the potatoes in a large saucepan, cover with cold water to a depth of 2 cm, and season generously with salt. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer until the potatoes are tender, 12-15 minutes. Drain thoroughly.
Step 2
• Press the potatoes through a press or vegetable grinder back into the pan. Alternatively, mash them with a potato masher.
Step 3
• Add all but 2 tablespoons of the butter and stir until melted. Gradually whisk in 3/4 cup of milk until fully incorporated. If the mashed potatoes still seem thick, gradually add the remaining 1/4 cup of milk. Season with salt to taste.
Step 4
• Transfer the mashed potatoes to a serving platter. Top with the remaining 2 tablespoons butter and sprinkle with chives.
