Smashed Red Potatoes
Servings 4
Equipment
- Large pot
Ingredients
- ¾ lb red potatoes cut into 1-inch chunks
- ⅓ cup of milk warmed
- 4 tbsp butter melted
- Garlic powder to taste
- Sea salt and freshly cracked pepper to taste
Instructions
- Cook the potatoes in a large pot of well-salted boiling water until tender, about 13-15 minutes.
- Drain the potatoes.
- Return potatoes to the pot, stirring, over low heat for one minute. Side Note: This helps dry the excess moisture from the potatoes, which allows them to absorb the milk and butter.
- Add the warmed milk, butter, garlic powder, sea salt, and freshly cracked pepper to taste.
- Smash the potatoes with a hand masher until you reach your desired consistency.
- Serve immediately. Enjoy.
