Teris Awsume Mashed Potatoes Recipes

PARIS MASH (RICH & CREAMY MASHED POTATO)

Steps:

• Scrub potatoes clean.
• Place potatoes in a large pot and cover with cold water. Bring to the boil then reduce heat and simmer for 30 to 40 minutes until the potatoes are very soft (depends on size).
• Alternatively, peel then chop into 2.5cm / 1" cubes (Note 4), cook 12 to 15 minutes until soft.
• Drain potatoes and return empty pot to stove.
• Using tea towels to handle the hot potatoes, peel them using a small knife (skin should slide off pretty easily).
• Mash the potatoes using one of these methods: Press them through a potato ricer or a food mill / grinder fitted with the finest disc, or mash in the pot using a potato masher (preferably with round holes, yields a similar result to potato ricer).
• Pro step: Then pass the potato through a drum sieve for 100% smooth mashed potato, like you get at restaurants. I do not do this (read in post)
• Turn stove on low and stir mashed potato for 1 minute (evaporate excess water).
• Add a few cubes of butter and a little splash of milk. Stir until butter melts and is incorporated.
• Repeat until all butter is used up, using milk to adjust the consistency to your desired taste towards the end. It should be soft and creamy, almost pourable.
• Season to taste with salt.
• Pour into serving bowl. Use a spoon to create swirls on the surface, top with small dollop of butter and a tiny sprinkle of parsley. Serve immediately!
