Whipped Potatoes tips

They seem like the easiest things to prepare and really they are, but here are a few tips to making some of the best:
1. use half red potatoes, half russet potatoes and add some salt to the water before you boil the potatoes.
2. don't cut them too small or over cook. They will get mushy with too much water in them. This will also deplete much of the vitamin benefits of the potato.
3. pour into a colander to drain off the water.
4. while the water is draining, warm the milk butter and some sour cream in the pan you cooked the potatoes in.
5. place cooked potatoes back to the pan and add salt and pepper.
6. smash with a potato smasher and then use a hand mixer to fluff.
Voila'!!
