"Champ" is an Irish mashed potato dish that is most usually served heaped on a plate with a 1-2 tablespoons of butter melting in the middle, the mashed potatoes are eaten from the outside to the inside dipping each bite into the butter. Do not whip these potatoes until smooth, leave chunky. The recipe can be doubled to 4 pounds of potatoes. This is wonderful a beef roast or turkey dinner and can be prepared up to a day in advance and refrigerated, just rewarm and serve.
