How to Make Bacon And Sage Mashed Potatoes
- Place the quartered potatoes in a large saucepan. Add enough chicken broth to barely cover the potatoes.
- Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat.
- Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer until the potatoes are easily pierced with a fork, about 10-15 minutes.
- Drain the potatoes, reserving about 1 cup of the cooking liquid.
- Return the potatoes to the saucepan. Add 1 cup of the reserved cooking liquid and mash until smooth using a potato masher or electric mixer.
- Stir in the butter and Gouda cheese until melted and fully incorporated. Do not overmix.
- If the mixture is too thick, add more reserved cooking liquid, 1 tablespoon at a time, until you reach your desired consistency.
- Gently stir in the crumbled bacon and chopped sage.
- Season generously with salt and pepper to taste.
- Serve immediately and enjoy!
