Ingredients

  • 1 kg white potatoes
  • Salt
  • 300 ml stock
  • 50 ml whole milk or cream heavy cream or double cream work well
  • 30 g butter or garlic butter

Instructions

  • Peel your potatoes and chop into bitesize pieces.
  • Wash them thoroughly.
  • Add to the pressure cooker pot, without the steamer basket.
  • Add 300ml of stock. I use vegetable stock usually.
  • Add salt (depending on the stock you're using you may be able to skip this).
  • Cook on the pressure cooker high setting for 8 minutes, using the quick release setting for the steam release.
  • You want to quick release the pressure, either manually or using your machine setting, to avoid overcooking the potatoes.
  • Check your potatoes are done by pricking with a fork. You want them to be fork tender, which they should be after 8 minutes pressure cooking.
  • Once they are cooked you can add milk or cream and butter. Usually there will be a little stock left, no need to drain this away just mash it inside the potatoes for a creamy mash.
  • Then use your potato masher of choice to mash.
  • Serve with your dinner and enjoy!
