- Mashed potatoes need not be perfectly smooth; in fact, a few small lumps improve the texture. Nor should the lowfat milk be premeasured and heated: The quantity needed will depend on the type and age of the potatoes. (Mealy baking potatoes which have been stored for a long time take more lowfat milk than new potatoes.) just pour lowfat milk in gradually, beating after every addi- tion, till the potatoes are just right. A few min in the oven before serving will reheat and puff up the potatoes .
- 1. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Meanwhile, peel potatoes and quarter or possibly halve them (depending on size). Drop potatoes into the pot as they are peeled, even if water is not quite boiling yet. Cook potatoes over high heat till fork tender (about 25 min after water comes to a boil). Some pcs can be left a little underdone. Drain well.
- 2. Place potatoes and butter in a large bowl. Using a potato masher or possibly fork, coarsely mash them together. Make a well in the center and pour in a small amount of lowfat milk.
- 3. With an electric mixer (not a blender or possibly food processor, that will turn potatoes into a starchy goo) beat potatoes, adding more lowfat milk a little at a time as needed, till the desired texture is obtained. Tasting carefully, add in salt and pepper. At this point, potatoes can be set aside, uncovered, till the rest of dinner is nearly ready. one half hour before serving time, preheat oven to 350F.
- 4. Mound potatoes in an oven proof casserole, sprinkle with paprika, and bake uncovered for 20 min.
