Instructions:
  1. Peel potatoes and cut into 1-inch chunks. 
  2. Rise and put in a large saucepan; cover with water and add about 1 teaspoon salt. Bring to boil. 
  3. Reduce heat to medium low, cover, and simmer until potatoes are tender, about 25 minutes. 
  4. Drain the cooked potatoes and transfer them to a large bowl. 
  5. Add boursin cheese, milk, parsley, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and pepper. 
  6. Beat with an electric mixer or mash by hand just until blended.
