Ingredients

  • 750 g potatoes
  • 200 g milk
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 40 g butter
  • pepper to taste

Instructions

  • Peel and chop the potatoes into 2cm squares. Try to ensure they are cut into equally sized pieces to ensure even cooking.
  • Place the potatoes into the Thermomix bowl.
  • Add the milk and salt. Cook for 20 minutes / 100 degrees / speed 1.
  • At the end of the cooking time, check the potatoes. They should be very tender and falling apart.
  • Insert the butterfly.
  • Add the butter. Mash for 5 seconds / speed 3.
  • Check the potatoes. Repeat for 5 seconds / speed 3, if necessary.
  • Serve with some extra butter on top and a sprinkle of chopped parsley or chives.

Notes

Top Tips for perfect mash:
  • Make sure you use a potato that is suitable for mashing - a fluffy, starchy all-rounder is fine. Popular varieties include Russets, Sebago, Maris Pipers and Yukon Gold.
  • Cut the potatoes into even size pieces.
  • Make sure the potatoes are properly cooked before mashing. Trying to mash undercooked potatoes can make the mash gluey.
  • Don't over-mash the potatoes. This will also make them gluey. Never mash for more than 20 seconds.
