Mashed Potatoes

Method

Mashed Potatoes

  1. 1

    Prepare the Potatoes

    Peel the Russet potatoes and cut them into quarters. Place them in a large pot and cover with cold water.

  2. 2

    Cook the Potatoes

    Bring the pot of water to a boil over high heat. Once boiling, reduce heat to medium and simmer for about 15-20 minutes or until the potatoes are tender when pierced with a fork.

  3. 3

    Drain and Mash

    Drain the potatoes thoroughly and return them to the pot. Add the butter, milk, salt, and black pepper. Mash the potatoes until smooth and creamy.

Gravy

  1. 4

    Make the Roux

    In a saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter. Once melted, whisk in the all-purpose flour and cook for about 2 minutes until it turns a light golden color.

  2. 5

    Add Broth

    Gradually whisk in the beef or vegetable broth, ensuring there are no lumps. Add the soy sauce, salt, and black pepper.

  3. 6

    Thicken the Gravy

    Continue to cook the gravy over medium heat, stirring frequently, until it thickens, about 5-7 minutes.
