Ingredients
- 12 whole medium red potatoes
- 1/4 cup butter
- 1/2 cup Lactose Free Milk
Instructions
- Put a big pot of water on to boil. You want to fill it with enough water to cover the potatoes. Turn it on to boil now, before you cut the potatoes as it normally takes a while to boil.
- Cut the potatoes up into inch thick pieces. I cut my potatoes into "apple slices" as I find it's fast and easy. As the potatoes are cut throw them in the water. Doesn't matter if it's boiling or not.
- Once the water boils, cook the potatoes for about 15mins.
- Fork a potato and run it under cold water to cool so you can check if it's cooked. Do this for about a minute you would be surprised how much heat a potato can hold. Yes, you should eat the potato. That's how to really know if it's ready.
- Once potato is cooked strain the water out. Either using a strainer or by using the lid to keep the potatoes in and let the water out.
- Toss the 1/4 cup of butter in the hot pot with the potatoes.. Even if it was cold from the fridge the scorching hot potatoes will melt it. Also add the 1/2 cup Lactose free milk.
- Smash the potatoes.
