Perfect Mashed Potato - step by step


This post is on behalf of my son, Naim.
The recipe is adapted from Masterclass No. 2 of MasterChef Australia Season 5 by Gary Mehigan.



Heat water in a large pot until it reaches boiling point. Cut up half a kilo of potatoes into two. Put them in a boiling water for 15 minutes until tender. Drain them in a colander and discard the water.


Working very quickly, using a pastry scrapper press the potatoes through the back of a large sieve or potato ricer into the same pot.  



Stir in the about 2 tbsp milk and 1/4 cup soft butter until very smooth.






 Season with salt and pepper if you like. It is also perfect as it is.



 Serve with roasted chicken with onion gravy. Perfect!
