  • Drain potatoes, add butter to pan and put potatoes back in. Add milk and salt. The amount of butter and milk you add is up to you and how smooth or rustic you'd like the potatoes to be.
  • Using a fork start mashing and stirring until the potatoes are the consistency you prefer. I like them more rustic (lumpy).
