Recipe instructions

Step 1

Step 1
How to make mashed potatoes with milk and butter? Prepare your food. Potatoes are better suited to varieties that contain a lot of starch — they boil better. Milk is suitable for any fat content; its amount may vary depending on the potatoes and the desired consistency of the mashed potatoes. Choose tasty, high-quality, natural butter and cheese.

Step 2

Step 2
Wash the potatoes well with a brush under running water, then peel them with a vegetable peeler — it removes the thinnest layer of peel. Then rinse the tubers and place them in a large saucepan. If the potatoes are large, then cut them into 3-4 parts, leave the small ones as is. Boil clean water in a kettle and pour it over the potatoes. This way you will reduce the cooking time.

Step 3
Place the pan over medium heat and cover with a lid. After the water boils, skim off the foam and add salt. Cook the potatoes for 25-30 minutes, depending on the variety. Check readiness with a knife — the blade should easily pierce the pieces.
