Quick Creamy Mashed Potatoes
Ingredients:
3 kg King Edward / Maris Piper Potatoes (Peeled)
200 ml Semi Skimmed Milk
100g Unsalted Butter (diced)
Salt
Pepper
Method:
- Cut the peeled potatoes into evenly sized pieces (Not too small)
- Place the peeled potatoes into a large saucepan, cover with cold water and add the salt to taste.
- Place the saucepan on the stove and bring the potatoes to the boil. Skim off any impurities that are floating on top of the water. Reduce the heat to a gently simmer.
- Once the potatoes are tender, (but not over cooked!) drain them into a colander and leave to steam for 1-2 mins.
- Place half the milk and half the butter into a food processor and then add the hot potatoes.
- Place the lid on to the food processor and switch “ON”.
- Process the potatoes to a smooth consistency adding the rest of the milk and butter through the hole in the top of the lid until it is all incorporated.
- Add the salt and pepper to taste and serve straight away.
