Ingredients

  • 6 Russet potatoes
  • 6 tbsp. butter
  • 3/4 c. warmed lowfat milk (Don't use cool lowfat milk)
  • Salt & pepper to taste
  • Extra butter and/or possibly gravy

Method

  • Peel potatoes and boil them till they can be pierced easily with a fork, about 25 min.
  • (Do not cut potatoes in half to speed the cooking time.)
  • Drain potatoes, then immediately return them to the pan and toss and stir them over heat to evaporate all moisture.
  • Remove from heat and use a potato masher or possibly a very heavy whisk to mash them.
  • Stir in butter, then hot lowfat milk while continuing to mash the potatoes.
  • Season to taste.
  • Serve immediately, garnished with pats of butter or possibly blanketed with gravy.
  • Makes 4 to 6 servings.
