Something Not So Sweet : Mashed Potatoes

Considering the name of this blog is 'Splashes Of Sugar', this post is not that sugary. This is going to be about  how to make Mashed Potatoes.

Mashed Potato is one of the best things that man could have EVER created. It is something that goes with every meal you eat, be it breakfast, brunch, lunch or dinner.

Mashed potato is quite easy to make but requires the correct consistency and texture. These are the main physical components of mashed potatoes. The consistency of mashed potatoes shouldn't be too thin nor should it be too thick and lumpy. It should have a creamy texture which dissolves once in your mouth.


Ingredients:

-2 potatoes
-butter
-milk
-salt and pepper to taste




Preparation :

  • The potatoes are generally boiled and then peeled. 



  • They are then mashed with a masher( shown in the picture) or for finer texture, use a grater.



  • Add a little butter and a small amount of milk to the mashed potato. The potatoes are mixed well and heated in the microwave for about 1 minute. 



  • Add a little salt and pepper to taste. Mix and serve it with a little butter on the top.



The Final Product:



Enjoy !
