Instructions
- Peel and wash the potatoes, and try to cut them into equal chunky sizes to ensure even cooking.
- Place in a large pan with cold water, bring to a boil, and simmer on low heat for about 25 minutes or until they are soft enough to pierce with a knife.
- Drain the potatoes and return the pan to heat just for 30 seconds and give it a good shake to dry the potatoes.
- Turn the heat to very low and add the softened butter, warm double cream, and plenty of seasoning to the potatoes.
- Mash the potatoes using a potato masher until smooth.
- Alternatively, you can use a stand mixer, ricer, mouli, or drum sieve.

Notes
- The best potatoes for fluffy, smooth, and flavorsome mashed potatoes are the ones with higher starch such as Yukon Gold, Maris Piper, Red Russets, Desire, or King Edward.
- Start cooking the potatoes with cold water.
- Cook the potatoes on low heat. Gently simmer them without heavy boiling to avoid the potatoes falling apart while cooking.
- Let the potatoes dry before mashing.
- Don't use cold butter or cream. Bring the butter to room temperature and warm up the double cream before adding to the potatoes.
- Don't overwork the potatoes. Using a food processor or overworking them for too long will cause the mashed potatoes to get gluey.
