Step 1
Place the potatoes into a large pot, cover them fully with cold water, and bring to a boil.
Add a handful of coarse salt, and lower the heat. Simmer for about 30 minutes.
Check if the potatoes are done by sticking a fork into the thickest one. It should come out easily with no flesh.
Drain and let the potatoes cool.
Peel the potatoes, and then mash them in a bowl.
