Helen's Rustic Mash Potato Recipe
Helen Porter
Rustic Mash Potato - makes enough for 4 dinner portions
Take 6 large baked potatoes
Take a baking tray and rub lightly with butter and then put a
light dusting of cracked sea salt over the whole tray
Roll the baked potatoes in the tray, then place in a pre heated
oven at 220 degrees
Half way through cooking roll the potatoes over
They should take 1hour and 45 minutes and you should be able to
put a knife easily though a potato
Once cooked take the potato out of the oven and leave to cool for
10 mins. Cut them in half and scrape the potato into a large
mixing bowl
While the potatoes are cooling, heat half a pack of butter at half
melting point add 1/4 pint of milk to the butter. Take off the
heat once the butter has melted into the milk.
Add the milk and butter mixture gradually to the potato mix. You
should stop adding the mixyure once the potato is smooth
Finish by adding salt and pepper to taste.
Some additional ingredients to spice up your mash:
Black pitted olives cut into 4 pieces
Spring Onions or leeks - these should be gently heated in butter
until soft
Grated cheese - Gryere or a chedder if grated should simply melt
into the mix
