easy cheese and chive potatoes
Prep Time 45 minutes
Servings 8 -10 servings

Ingredients

  • 3 lbs . yukon gold potatoes
  • 2 c . grated cheddar cheese (we use a mix of white and orange extra sharp cheddar)
  • 1/4 c . butter
  • 1 1/2 c . sour cream
  • 1-2 T . chopped chives
  • 1 tsp . salt

Instructions

Cook the potatoes:

  • Clean and cut potatoes in half.
  • Place on trivet in the Instant Pot.
  • Pour 1 cup of water in the bottom of the pot.
  • Make sure lid is closed and vent is in the sealed position.
  • Cook on manual for approximately 8 minutes.
  • When 8 minute cycle is over, hit cancel and let naturally release for 5 minutes.
  • Quick release pressure and remove potatoes to a tray to cool.
  • Peel potatoes once cooled enough to handle (I waited 20-30 minutes).
  • Cube potatoes into small bite size pieces.

Casserole instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350F.
  • Melt butter in a large pot over low heat.
  • Stir in sour cream.
  • Turn heat off and add grated cheese.
  • Once cheese is melted, stir in chives and salt.
  • Add cubed potatoes and sitr.
  • Pour potatoes into greased casserole pan--we used a 2.5 quart circular casserole pan.
  • Cover with foil and cook covered for 30 minutes.
  • Uncover and cook for another 15-30 minutes (should be bubbly in the middle).
  • *The deeper your dish, the longer the potatoes will take to cook all the way in the middle.
