  1. 01

    Using vegetable peeler, peel potatoes. Rinse with cold water and cut into 1 inch chunks.

    On stove-top, fill large saucepan with water and a pinch of salt. Bring to a rolling boil. Add potatoes and bring back to a boil.

  3. 03

    Cook potatoes for 20-25 minutes or until very tender. To test, pierce a piece of the potato with fork, if it goes in easily, you're done.

    Drain well, then return to saucepan. Mash potatoes over low heat, add milk, butter, salt and pepper; mash with fork or potato masher until light and fluffy.
