Remove the lid once the pressure has fully released. Add in the butter, sour cream, and Parmesan cheese. Using a potato masher mash the potatoes.
Stir in enough milk so the potatoes are the desired consistency. Stir in the chives. Season with salt and pepper to taste if desired.

Instant Pot Garlic Mashed Potatoes are an easy way to add flavor to your dinner. You can use fresh garlic or you can use roasted garlic cloves for this creamy potato recipe. Fresh herbs make a wonderful addition to this delicious side dish as well.For extra smooth potatoes use a hand mixer or potato ricer for a creamier consistency.If you are using a waxy potato like Yukon gold or red potatoes there is no need to peel since they have a thin skin. If using russet potatoes then you will want to peel them as the skins are thicker.
