Servings: 4 people
Calories: 250kcal
Ingredients
- 800 g Potatoes, cut them in smaller pieces of the same size (remove the skin)
- 1 teaspoon Salt (add to the water while cooking the potatoes)
- 3 Tablespoons Unsalted Butter
- ¾ cup Milk
- ½ teaspoon Black pepper
- ½ teaspoon Salt
Instructions
- Add the cubed, skinless potatoes to a pot. Add enough water (cold water, not boiling) to cover all the potatoes entirely. Add 1 teaspoon of salt to the water. Set the pot on high heat until the water starts to boil and then reduce it to medium-low heat.
- After the water is boiling, cook the potatoes for 10-15 minutes or until they are very tender. Don't overcook it. You can test it by putting a fork inside it. Drain the potatoes well to remove all excess moisture.
- Mash them either with a fork, or a mash potato tool. Do not use a blender or food processor for this, otherwise their consistency will turn into gooey.
- In the same pot you used to cook the potatoes, add all the ingredients and stir it for around 2 minutes on low heat. Adjust the salt or pepper per your taste.
