Ok, I know this is really basic, but it's comfort food and hey don't we love it! This is my version, if you have any other tips or suggestions please leave your comments.
Cut the potatoes in equal pieces so they cook at the same time. If you will be mashing them then peel them otherwise no need to peel. When they are cooked-you will know when a fork goes through easily, think of butter- note: better that you overcook them than under cook them- put in a colander and drain. Leave them for 3-4 minutes and then place in a bowl. Add butter and salt and pepper. If you want texture smash them. For creamy mash some milk, the amount will depend on how creamy you want them.
TIP: If you smash them try adding chopped spring onions and a clove of crushed garlic-adds to the colour.
