Ingredients

Foolproof Mashed Potatoes

  • 3 pounds Idaho potatoes (about 5 large)

  • 1/2 cup oil

  • Haddar Salt, to taste

Directions

1.

Peel potatoes and cut into eighths, cover with water, and bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce the heat to medium and simmer until the potatoes are tender and fall apart when pierced with a fork, about 30 minutes.

2.

Drain the potatoes, reserving one and a half cups of the cooking liquid. Return the potatoes and reserved liquid to the pot and add the oil and spices. Mash with a potato masher. The potatoes might look liquidy at first, but they will absorb the liquid as you continue to mash, turning fluffy and moist.

Tips:

For extra-savory mashed potatoes, use reserved cooking oil or pan drippings from cooking meat.
