directions

  • Fill 3 qt sauce pan half way with water.
  • Add garlic powder, Thyme, and (aprox. 3 tbs) salt.
  • Bring to low boil and add potatoes cubed into 1 1/2 to 2 1/2 inch pieces.
  • Let boil until a fork will easily penetrate large pieces.
  • Drain off water and add salt and pepper to taste, butter (tastes better that margarine) and milk (carefully).
  • Mash potatoes (I use a waffled round hand potatoe masher instead of a mixer because I like lumpy, but that takes some elbow grease).
  • You can work with the ingredients a bit to get the right texture.

Reviews

  1. Good potatoes.
     
  2. Great recipe but the 3 tbsp of salt made it much too salty. Next time I'll only add a pinch. Other than that they were lovely!
