These mashed potatoes were a bit too runny for my taste. I think I would have preferred to use more potatoes and less milk.

This is a great basic recipe for mashed potatoes. I like to add a bit of garlic and roasted vegetables to give it an extra kick.

I have tried so many mashed potato recipes over the years, and this one is by far the best. The secret is in the use of russet potatoes, which give the potatoes a light and fluffy texture.
