THE BEST MASHED POTATOES
This is our go-to recipe for classic mashed potatoes, made with plenty of butter and cream. To make them fluffy and flavorful, be sure to simmer them slowly and add plenty of salt to the cooking water. And don't skip the step of steaming the excess water off; leaving too much moisture in the potatoes causes them to be loose and gluey.

Steps:
- Put the potatoes in a large pot and cover with cold water. Generously salt the water and bring to a boil over high heat. Then lower the heat to medium and gently simmer until the potatoes are completely tender when pierced with the tip of a knife, about 30 minutes.
- Drain the potatoes well and return them to the pot. Place the pot over low heat and let any residual water steam off, about 2 minutes. Mash the potatoes well with a potato masher. Fold in the butter with a spatula until melted, and then fold in the cream. Season with salt and pepper.

CREAMY MASHED POTATO
Recipe video above. This is my essential mashed potato recipe I make 362 days of the year*. It's a must-have at holiday gatherings and Sunday Suppers, and it's the mash you've seen smothered by sauces and gravies in hundreds of recipes on my website! Easy, creamy, buttery, rich but not insanely so (we have Paris Mash for that). Serve with everything. (*The other 3 days of the year I make Paris Mash, KFC Potato and Gravy, and Creamy Cauliflower Mash)

Steps:
- Place in a large pot with 1 tbsp salt. Add water so it's 10cm / 4" above potatoes.
- Bring to a boil over high heat then reduce heat so it's simmering rapidly. Cook 15 minutes or until potatoes are very soft (jab with fork to test, they should fall apart).
- Drain well, return into pot. Leave for 1 minute, shaking pot every now and then, to encourage evaporation of water.
- Add Flavourings then mash well, using milk to make it looser if desired.
- DO NOT use: a beater, stick blender, food processor or blender. You can pulse with a stand mixer or handheld mixer but be cautious, stop as soon as it's creamy (potatoes will quickly go from perfect to gluey using appliances).
- Transfer to serving bowl, make pretty swirls across the top and drizzle over butter. Sprinkle with chives then serve!

Steps:
- Tip the potatoes into a large pan, cover with cold water and sprinkle with a generous pinch of salt. Set the pan over a high heat and bring to the boil. Once boiling, reduce the heat to a simmer and cook for 15-20 mins until the potatoes are very tender - they should be able to be easily pierced with the tip of a knife. Drain well, then return to the pan and leave to steam-dry for 5 mins.
- Pass the potatoes through a ricer into a large bowl for a lump-free mash (you may need to do this in batches). Alternatively, mash with a potato masher until smooth, then press through a sieve using the back of a spoon to get rid of any remaining lumps.
- Tip the 50g Yeo Valley Organic salted butter, the milk and some seasoning into the bowl with the hot mash. Beat everything together with a wooden spoon or spatula until the butter has melted and the mixture is smooth and creamy. Add a splash more milk to loosen, if needed. Top with the remaining 1 tbsp butter and leave it to melt for a few seconds before serving.
