Steps

1

Wash & peel potatoes, cut to pieces. Make sure they are the same size. Always leave them in cold water after cut potatoes.
2

Add some cold water and potatoes in the large saucepan. Also add good pinch of salt. Close the lid and bring it up to the boil.
3

When it’s boiling, check it. Keep the lid on and lower the heat to gentle boil for another 8-10 minutes until it’s tender. Check by using cutlery knife to cut a piece of potato easily.
4

Drain the potatoes and leave them to steam- dry in the colander for 5 minutes.
5

After 5 minutes, add back potatoes to the same pan. Mash it by using masher or pass them through sieve and leave them in the same pan.
6

If you don’t cook straight away, you can pack them up in the pan and cover with cling film.
7

To cook them in the pan, draw potatoes to one side. Add milk and butter on another side. Season with salt & pepper. Heat the milk and butter. Do not heat up potatoes side. Let the butter melt in the heated milk and bring them up to the boil.
8

Once boiling, take the pan off the heat and fold the potatoes to the milk & melted butter until we have soft and fluffy mashed potatoes.
9

Serve with or without chopped chives.
