Do you peel potato's before mashing? 12:10 - Feb 24 with 6618 viewsPecker

When making mashed potato, I never peel the potato's. Boil potato's, lightly mash before adding big lump of butter, splash of milk, salt & pepper. Continue to mash until reasonably smooth. The skins add a lovely texture. I am guess 99.9% of you do this already, but just checking I am doing it right.

My diet has steered me to cauli mash which I am currently loving. Shouldn’t work but it does.


Shouldn't work and it doesn't. Potatoes are Veggie and vegan friendly, so no issue there.

I always think cauliflower is better with a crunch. Roasted with paprika is excellent.

Is this some kind of sick joke?




I knew I would get a negative response.

I’m fussy with mash. Hate smash and all that instant stuff.

But the fresh microwave mash is fine, tastes no different to usual mash, still put a bit of butter in it.

Or drugs. Just add some water to your MDMA, give it a stir and job done. Lower in carbs and it'll work out your jawline too.

Sitters mate, you ain't a kid anymore. Time to eat like us grown up. Microwave mash? Never had it, never likely to either.

Wish it was. Would have cup finals and wins to look forward to and I would have just started school. I could concentrate more in my English lessons, so I am not ridiculed 40+ years later on something called the internet.

You do not have to over boil anything. Boiling water, add veg, let water come back to boil, turn hob down and simmer for 5 minutes. Perfect crunchy veg every time. No need to over complicate things.

1/ Definitely should be peeled, boiled and then mashed with copious amounts of butter and some milk.

2/ And this is arguably the best advert ever.

Peel, boil, drain off all the water.

Add a splash of milk and a decent bit of butter, some mixed herbs and keep on a reduced heat for a few minutes whilst the butter melts, stirring continuously.

Ends up bloody amazing.
