This is the way our family likes our mashed potatoes. The evaporated milk makes this dish special. Simple, creamy and good!
Ingredients:
6 large potatoes (we like russets or yukon gold)
3/4 cup canned evaporated milk
1/2 cup butter
salt and pepper
Directions:
1. Peel potatoes and cut into quarters.
2. Place potatoes into stockpot. Add enough salted water to cover the potatoes by about 1-inch.
3. Cover pot and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer until potatoes are fork tender but not mushy, about 20 to 25 minutes.
4. Drain potatoes in colander. Place potatoes back into stockpot.
5. Meanwhile, heat evaporated milk in microwave (use a pyrex measuring cup) until warm, about 45 seconds.
6. Add butter to potatoes and mash with a potato masher. Add warmed milk to potatoes along with pepper to taste.
7. Mix and mash well, but don't overdo it.
8. ENJOY!
