Place potatoes in pot filled ¾ way with water. Cook for approximately 30 minutes on medium-high heat until potatoes are tender. Drain water from potatoes. Add butter and cream to the potato mixture until combined well. Add lobster meat, chives and salt and pepper to taste to the potato mixture and combine. Serve hot.
If garnishing with fresh truffles add the truffles just before serving to hot potatoes to allow full truffle smell and flavor to develop.
