Perfect Mashed Potatoes

Its been some time since i missed my kitchen, so today after a long time i have been to my heaven, and made some yummy potato mash

Ingredients

  • 2 potatoes, peeled and quartered length-wise
  • 4 Tbsp heavy cream
  • 2 Tbsp butter
  • 1 Tbsp milk
  • Salt and Pepper
A potato masher

Method

1 Put potatoes into a saucepan. Add 1/2 teaspoon salt. Add water until potatoes are covered. Bring to boil, reduce heat and simmer, covered, 15-20 minutes, or until done - a fork can easily be poked through them.
2 Warm cream and melt butter, together, either in microwave or in a pan on the stove.(i like it been cooked in pan, i like some extra calories) Drain water from potatoes. Put hot potatoes into a bowl. Add cream and melted butter. Use potato masher to mash potatoes until well mashed. Use a strong spoon to beat further, adding milk to achieve the consistency you desire. (Do not over-beat or your potatoes will get gluey.) Salt and pepper to taste. you can also add a little turmeric powder for yellowish color.



You can also try some roasted sesame seeds for garnishing
Am sure everyone likes the yummy taste of  potato, give this recipe a try you will love it.

Happy Cooking :)
