- 2 ½ pounds potatoes peeled and quartered
- 1 large onion finely chopped
- 3 tablespoons oil
- Salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
Instructions
- In a medium saucepan, bring potatoes and enough water to cover by 1 inch to a boil; add salt. Cover, reduce heat and simmer until tender, 15 to 20 minutes.

- Drain the potatoes and return to the pan. Add the onions with all of the oil. Mash until smooth. Season with freshly ground black pepper. Serve immediately.
Notes
~ Free Tip ~
For the fluffiest, smoothest mash choose potatoes high in starch, like Russet or Yukon Gold. If you like your potatoes smashed (with chunks) you can use Idaho potatoes. For even more flavor, sauté minced garlic clove with the onions.
