1
Prepare the Potatoes
Peel the potatoes and cut them into evenly sized chunks.
2
Boil the Potatoes
Place the potato chunks in a large pot and cover with water. Add a pinch of salt and bring to a boil. Cook for about 15-20 minutes, or until the potatoes are fork-tender.
3
Drain the Potatoes
Once the potatoes are cooked, drain them in a colander.
4
Mash the Potatoes
Return the drained potatoes to the pot. Add butter, milk, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Mash the potatoes using a potato masher or fork until smooth and creamy.
5
Serve
Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary. Serve warm as a side dish.
