Mashed Potatoes

  • 2 lbs of potatoes
  • 1 tsp of salt
  • 1 cup of half and half
  • 6 Tbsp of butter
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Add the potatoes to a large pot with enough cold water to cover them by an inch or so. Add salt and bring the water to a boil. Cook until the potatoes are tender when pierced with a knife. (About 15 minutes) Drain the potatoes return them to the pot and cook the drained potatoes over low heat for a couple of minutes to evaporate some of the water still in the potato.

Mash by your method of choice. Blend in butter, half & half, and any other ingredients you prefer. Season with salt and pepper.
