Mashed Potatoes

Ingredients

• 1 pound yukon gold potatoes, peeled and quartered length-wise
• 0.5 teaspoons salt
• 4 teaspoons heavy cream
• 2 teaspoons butter
• 1 tablespoon milk salt and pepper

Directions

Put potatoes into a saucepan. Add 1/2 teaspoon salt. Add water until potatoes are covered. Bring to boil, reduce heat and simmer, covered, 15-20 minutes, or until done - a fork can easily be poked through them.

Warm cream and melt butter, together, either in microwave or in a pan on the stove. Drain water from potatoes. Put hot potatoes into a bowl. Add cream and melted butter. Use potato masher to mash potatoes until well mashed. Use a strong spoon to beat further, adding milk to achieve the consistency you desire. (Do not over-beat or your potatoes will get gluey.) Salt and pepper to taste.
