Mashed Potatoes

Method

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Potatoes

    Peel and cut the potatoes into evenly sized chunks.

  2. 2

    Boil the Potatoes

    Place the potato chunks in a large pot and cover them with cold water. Add a pinch of salt and bring to a boil. Cook for about 15-20 minutes or until the potatoes are tender when pierced with a fork.

  3. 3

    Drain the Potatoes

    Once cooked, drain the potatoes in a colander and let them sit for a minute to allow excess moisture to evaporate.

  4. 4

    Mash the Potatoes

    Return the potatoes to the pot and add the butter, milk, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Mash the potatoes using a potato masher or fork until smooth and creamy.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Taste and adjust seasoning if needed. If using, stir in chopped chives before serving. Serve warm.
