Steam the Potatoes: Place the potato chunks in a steamer basket set over a pot of simmering water. Cover with a lid and steam the potatoes until they are fork-tender, which usually takes about 15-20 minutes depending on the size of the chunks.
Mash the Potatoes: Once the potatoes are cooked through, transfer them to a large mixing bowl. Use a potato masher or a fork to mash the potatoes until they reach your desired consistency. For a smoother texture, you can use a potato ricer or a food mill.
Add Flavorings: Season the mashed potatoes with salt, pepper, and any other desired flavorings such as butter, cream, garlic, or herbs. Mix well to incorporate the seasonings evenly throughout the mash.
Serve and Enjoy: Transfer the mashed potatoes to a serving dish and garnish with additional butter or fresh herbs if desired. Serve hot as a side dish alongside your favorite main course.
