  • 4 Golden Potatoes peeled and cubed
  • 4 tbsp Cornstarch
  • 4 tbsp Butter
  • ½ cup Heavy Cream
  • 1 tsp Salt
  • 1 tsp Pepper
  • 3 tbsp Dried Parsley divided
  • Avocado oil

Instructions
 

  • Start salted water boiling. Once at a rolling boil add potato cubes. Cook until fork tender.
  • Drain potatoes and add to large mixing bowl. Mash slightly, then add cornstarch, butter, heavy cream, salt, pepper and 2 tablespoons of parsley. Allow to cool for about 10 minutes.
  • Use a food scoop to portion out the mashed potatoes into spheres. Gently roll between gloved palms to smooth out the edges.
