Daddy's mashed potatoes

This may very well be the very best mashed potatoes ever known to mankind. So definitely try this recipe, you'll love it!

Ingredients:

  • potatoes of course
  • milk (not skimmed, not semi-skimmed but the real deal)
  • butter (cooking, frying butter f.e. Fama, Solo,...)
  • Salt & pepper
  • A bit of grated nutmeg

How to:

Peel and cut your potatoes and then boil them in salted water until they're soft. Drain them and let them damp out a bit in the casserole. Mash the potatoes quick and thoroughly. If you mash them to slow they can get a 'mastic' like texture.

Warm a cup of milk up in the microwave, don't let it boil, just warm is enough. Whisk it through the mash. Cut some cubes of butter and press them into the mash, all over the casserole. Put the salt and pepper and a just a little bit of the nutmeg in. Don't stir yet! Put the lid on the casserole, let it rest for a second and when you put it on the table, open it up, stir it with a wooden spoon and here's you're mashed potatoes. Enjoy!
