Instructions:

1. Prepare the Potatoes:
- Peel the potatoes and cut them into uniform cubes.
- Place the cubed potatoes in a large pot and add enough water to cover them.
- Add a pinch of salt to the water (optional).
2. Cook the Potatoes:
- Bring the water to a boil over medium-high heat.
- Reduce the heat to medium and cook the potatoes until they are tender when pierced with a fork, about 15-20 minutes.
3. Drain and Mash:
- Drain the potatoes in a colander and return them to the pot.
- Add the 2 tablespoons of butter to the hot potatoes and let it melt.
4. Mash the Potatoes:
- Using a potato masher or an electric mixer, mash the potatoes until smooth.
5. Add Flavor:
- Stir in the 1 tablespoon of horseradish and the 1/2 cup of sour cream.
- Mix until the ingredients are fully incorporated and the mixture is creamy.
6. Season:
- Add the dash of black pepper to taste.
- Taste the mashed potatoes and add salt if desired.
7. Garnish and Serve:
- Fold in 1 teaspoon of chopped fresh parsley.
- Transfer the mashed potatoes to a serving dish.
- Sprinkle the remaining teaspoon of parsley on top for garnish.
8. Enjoy:
- Serve hot as a delightful side dish with your favorite main course.

Tips:

- Use starchy potatoes like Russet or Yukon Gold for the creamiest mashed potatoes.

- Make sure to adequately drain the boiled potatoes to avoid excess water, which can make the mashed potatoes runny.

- If you prefer a smoother texture, pass the mashed potatoes through a ricer or use an electric mixer.

- Feel free to adjust the amount of horseradish to suit your taste preferences.

- For an extra burst of flavor, consider adding a splash of milk or cream when mashing the potatoes.
