Most of the mashed potatoes recipes are easy, but with this one I will try to cut out all of my babbling and just stick to the facts. Ups…well here I go again…

For this Fast, Easy, Basic Mashed Potatoes Recipe you will need:

2 pounds russet or red potatoes

  1. Peel potatoes.
  2. Cut them in 4 pieces and cover with cold water.
  3. Boil and then simmer the potatoes in salted water until they are soft and tender (15-20minutes).
  4. Drain potatoes, put them back on low heat for a minute or so.
  5. Take them off.
  6. Add butter and milk.
  7. Mash the potatoes until they are smooth and add some more salt and pepper for the taste (try them).
