Ingredients
 

  • 500 g raw peeled mashing potatoes, such as Marfona, King Edward, etc.
  • 75 g melted salted butter
  • 150 ml approx. warm milk
  • 1 pinch salt
  • 1 pinch ground black pepper
  • 1 pinch ground nutmeg

Instructions
 

  • Cut the potatoes into medium-sized chunks, then wash well in cold water.
  • Place in a saucepan and cover with cold water.
  • Bring to a boil, then simmer until the potatoes are fully cooked through but not falling apart.
  • Tip into a colander and drain really well.
  • Place the potatoes back into the pan over low heat, steam slightly to remove all moisture, and shake the pan occasionally.
  • Off the heat, using a masher or mouli, gently mash the steaming potatoes until fully broken down.
  • Add butter, milk, salt and pepper and using a hand whisk or wooden spoon, gently beat until light and fluffy.
  • You can add a little more milk at this stage because as the mash cools, the starch in the potatoes will thicken slightly.
  • Serve.
