Mashed Potatoes

Once again, just the same with my recent posts this was my first attempt on making mashed potatoes. Last Sunday, I made some to match my roast. Making mashed potatoes is very easy. You can do it everyday as long as you have potatoes in stock. So creamy that you don't even need gravy. But okay...whatever we do, gravy is a must, so I included my easy gravy recipe too.

Ingredients:

5-6 medium to big size potatoes peeled and washed

Pinch of salt

1/2 c milk

4 tbsp melted butter

A dash of your favorite dried herb

Important Materials:

Potato masher/ heavy fork

Puree potatoes using a food processor, an electric mixer or a blender

How To:

Boil peeled potatoes in a sauce pan until cooked.

Drain water. In low fire,  dry potatoes using the very same sauce pan. Then turn off fire.

Once potatoes are dried up, mash each using a potato masher or use a fork.

Transfer mashed potatoes in a bowl, with an electric mixer, just mix away pouring melted butter, salt , dried herb, and milk little by little until desired texture is reached. (follow same procedures if you're going to use a food processor or a blender)
