Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 1/2 pounds baking potatoes, peeled and cut into 1-inch chunks
Coarse salt
3/4 cup whole milk
2 tablespoons butter
1/2 cup shredded white cheddar, plus more for garnish (optional)

Steps:

  • Place potatoes in a medium saucepan. Cover with cold water by 1 inch; add 1 teaspoon salt. Bring to a boil; reduce to a simmer, and cook until potatoes are tender, 15 to 18 minutes.
  • Drain and return potatoes to pan. Stir potatoes over medium heat until dry (a film of starch will form on bottom of pan), about 1 minute. Remove from heat.
  • In a small saucepan, bring milk and butter to a simmer over medium heat; pour half of milk mixture over potatoes. Mash potatoes until just smooth, gradually adding enough of remaining milk mixture to reach desired consistency. Mix in cheddar; season with salt. Garnish with more cheese, if desired.
