BASIC MASHED POTATOES

Steps:

• Bring a pot of salted water to a boil. Add potatoes and cook until tender but still firm, about 15 minutes; drain.

ULTIMATE MASHED POTATOES RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• On a cutting board, peel the potatoes. Place the potatoes in a large bowl of cold water after peeling to avoid discoloration.
• Cut the potatoes into 1-inch (2 cm) cubes.
• Add the potatoes to a large pot and cover with cold water. Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce the heat to low and simmer for 12 minutes.
• In a small saucepan, bring the milk, heavy cream, and garlic to a simmer over low heat.
• Remove the pot from the heat and strain the cream through a fine mesh sieve.
• Drain the potatoes in a colander and transfer back to the pot.
• Mash the potatoes with a potato masher, potato ricer, or by pushing through a fine mesh sieve with a spatula.
• Add the cubed cold butter and salt. Stir to combine.
• Gradually add the cream mixture to the potatoes, little by little, until fully incorporated.
• Top with freshly ground black pepper and sprinkle with chives and serve.
• Enjoy!

SOMETHING LIKE MASHED POTATOES

Steps:

• Cut and skin all but one potato into cubes or chunks and boil.
• Prepare lone potato the same way but leaving skin on, cubing and boiling separately, alternatively, this could also be a baked potato.
• Drain potatoes and mash either by hand or by mixer.
• Add butter and milk until smooth and creamy. I do not add exact measures, as this tends to be a personal decision, but about a tablespoon of each is a good start.
• Cook onion separately if you are using, I would personally sauté it.
• Mix in bacon bits, garlic powder, onions and salt if you are using them.
• Add the lone potato to the mix last. If it was a baked potato, cut it into cubes. If you chose to boil it separately, just drain it, it should already be in cubes.
• I would suggest a gentle mix for this lone potato in with the rest, either a really short and low mixer setting, or even just using a fork.
• If all goes well you should have a smooth mashed potato with small skinned potato chunks. Yummy!
