I am so thankful my mom was available to help me figure out what to do in order to make mashed potatoes. I felt like most of the recipes online were kind of complex and hard to follow.
Mashed Potatoes
Mashed Potatoes Recipe
- Potatoes
- Water
- Butter
- Milk
- Wash the potatoes and skin if desired. Cut potatoes, the thinner the potato the faster it cooks. I did bite sized pieces and covered with water in a pot. Then I cooked for 20-30 minutes covered with a lid. Once the potatoes fall apart easily when stabbed with a fork they are all done. Then you drain them, throw them in a large bowl, add some milk and a little butter to taste and desired consistency, and finally use a hand mixer to mix everything together. You can add seasoning also. I didn't add seasoning though, since I had gravy ready to go! Then enjoy some delicious potatoes!

Things I've Learned
- The smaller the potato piece the faster it cooks
- If the potato breaks apart easily when stabbed by a fork the potatoes are ready to be mashed.
- The sauce from the Ranch Pork Chops is amazing as a gravy!!!!
