PARIS MASH (RICH & CREAMY MASHED POTATO)
Recipe video above. This is mashed potato as served at top tier restaurants. It's soft and almost pourable, intensely buttery and has a more pure potato flavour. Restaurants double pass the potato through a mill then a fine sieve so it's 100% lump free. For this home version, I simply pass the potato through a ricer OR mash it. Nobody notices the imperfections because they're too focussed on the amazing flavour and the creamy yet fluffy texture!

Steps:
- Scrub potatoes clean.
- Place potatoes in a large pot and cover with cold water. Bring to the boil then reduce heat and simmer for 30 to 40 minutes until the potatoes are very soft (depends on size).
- Alternatively, peel then chop into 2.5cm / 1" cubes (Note 4), cook 12 to 15 minutes until soft.
- Drain potatoes and return empty pot to stove.
- Using tea towels to handle the hot potatoes, peel them using a small knife (skin should slide off pretty easily).
- Mash the potatoes using one of these methods: Press them through a potato ricer or a food mill / grinder fitted with the finest disc, or mash in the pot using a potato masher (preferably with round holes, yields a similar result to potato ricer).
- Pro step: Then pass the potato through a drum sieve for 100% smooth mashed potato, like you get at restaurants. I do not do this (read in post)
- Turn stove on low and stir mashed potato for 1 minute (evaporate excess water).
- Add a few cubes of butter and a little splash of milk. Stir until butter melts and is incorporated.
- Repeat until all butter is used up, using milk to adjust the consistency to your desired taste towards the end. It should be soft and creamy, almost pourable.
- Season to taste with salt.
- Pour into serving bowl. Use a spoon to create swirls on the surface, top with small dollop of butter and a tiny sprinkle of parsley. Serve immediately!
