Easy Mashed Potato

Prepare the potatoes by removing the skin with a knife or peeler. Then chop them into small bite size pieces.

Bring a saucepan of water to the boil by increasing the heat. Add the potatoes and boil them for 10-12 minutes, or until they are very soft (they should break apart when pierced with a fork).

Once cooked, drain the boiled potatoes in a colander or drain the water from the saucepan.

Return the potatoes to the saucepan with the heat turned off. Add milk and sprinkle with pepper.

Mash the potatoes using a fork or potato masher until smooth and fluffy.
