Peel the potatoes and chop them into chunks. Throw them in boiling water for about 20 minutes. Mash them up with a fork once they’re done. Mix in the warm milk and a generous knob of butter. While stirring, slowly add in the olive oil. Keep it warm for later.

Spoon the mixture into an oven dish and bake it at 180°C for 15–20 minutes. Pop it under the grill at the end but keep a close eye on it! Sprinkle some chopped chives on top before serving.
