SIMPLE MASHED POTATOES



Simple Mashed Potatoes image

We use russet potatoes for this recipe because of their high starch content, which makes for fluffier mashed potatoes. We keep the potatoes in their skins and simmer rather than boil them to keep them from getting water-logged and mushy.

Categories     side-dish

Time 1h5m

Yield 6 to 8 servings (5 1/2 cups)

Number Of Ingredients 5

2 pounds medium russet potatoes, scrubbed (3 to 4 potatoes)
Kosher salt
6 tablespoons (3/4 stick) unsalted butter, at room temperature, cut into pieces
1 cup half-and-half, warmed
Freshly ground pepper

Steps:

  • Put the potatoes in a large saucepan, add enough cold water to just cover and salt generously. Bring to a simmer over medium heat and cook, uncovered, until the potatoes are fork-tender, 45 to 55 minutes.
  • Drain the potatoes, peel (use an oven mitt or kitchen towel to steady the potatoes) and transfer to a large bowl. Add the butter, warm milk, 1 1/2 teaspoons salt and a few grinds of black pepper, and mash with a potato masher.

MASHED POTATOES, SIMPLY



Mashed Potatoes, Simply image

I searched for a simple mashed potato recipe and wasn't too excited by anything I found. I didn't want to use a lot of ingredients, I wanted something simple and straightforward. I eventually just turned to my cookbooks and found this one and we enjoyed it very much. If you like your mashed potatoes lumpy, then mash them with a fork or potato masher. If you like them really smooth, you're better off with a food mill or ricer. If you don't want to add milk you can substitute some of the potato-cooking water.
