This hardly needs a recipe. Mashed potatoes are simple and common enough that I'm pretty sure most folks -- Terran and Tyrian alike -- could figure it out without much guidance. But, in the interest of completeness, here it is.

Mashed Potatoes

Ingredients

• potatoes (preferably slightly waxy)
• 1/4 c. unsalted butter per kg of potatoes
• 2 Tbsp. milk or buttermilk per kg of potatoes
• 1 tsp. coarse sea salt per kg of potatoes

Directions

1. You can peel the potatoes if you like, but I usually prefer to leave the skins on.
2. If the potatoes are large, halve or quarter them to help them cook faster.
3. Place the potatoes in a pot with enough water to cover them and bring to a boil.
4. Boil until fork tender.
5. Drain and add butter, milk, and salt. (Sometimes I add a little pepper at this point too.)
6. Mash with a potato masher or a fork until no large chunks remain.
