Mashed Potatoes

The shredding disc processes cooked potatoes to the right texture. Be careful not to overprocess when you mix them with the other ingredients.

INGREDIENTS

1/4 cup hot milk

2tablespoons butter, cut into 1-inch pieces

1/2 teaspoon salt

Freshly ground black pepper Pinch of nutmeg (optional)

3large potatoes, peeled, boiled and drained

Put all ingredients except potatoes in work bowl and insert shredding disc. Place potatoes in large feed tube and process. Leave in work bowl. Remove shredding disc and carefully insert metal blade. Pulse 2 or 3 times, until liquid is absorbed. Potatoes will become gluey if you overprocess.

Wonderfully light, fluffy mashed potatoes can also be made with the optional Whisk Attachment (DLC-855).

Yield 4 servings.
