Note

If you do not have a pressure cooker, you can boil the potatoes in salted water until they are tender when pierced with a fork, which typically takes 15-20 minutes.

For a smoother consistency, peel the potatoes before cooking.

To increase creaminess without adding fat, mix in 1/2 cup of nonfat cottage cheese during the mashing process.

Always refer to your specific pressure cooker's manual for water requirements and safety instructions, as models vary.

Adjust the amount of chipotle chiles and adobo sauce to control the level of spiciness to your preference.
