Mashed potatoes recipe for 4-6 people :

1kg floury potatoes
20cl milk
90g butter

Salt and nutmeg

Step-by-step directions

1- Cut your potatoes in their length and place them in a pot. Cover with some cold water and season with a good pinch of sea salt. Allow to cook, at a gentle simmer, for 22 minutes.

2- Put your milk in a separate pot and season it with salt and some nutmeg.

3- Quickly mash your potatoes and put them back into the pot. Place it on a medium heat and dry the mashed potatoes, stirring at all time with a wooden spoon, for about 15 seconds. Then, gradually add the warm milk and the butter cut into small dices.

This is a very simple recipe. But if you are very rigourous in making it you will be surprised by the result.
