Recipe is created for
TM 5
If you are using a Thermomix® TM6 measuring cup with your Thermomix® TM5:
For cooking (simmering) at temperatures of 95°C or above (200°F), the simmering basket should always be used instead of the TM6 measuring cup, as the TM6 measuring cup fits tightly in the lid. The simmering basket rests loosely on top, is steam-permeable, and also prevents food spatter from the mixing bowl.

Recipe's preparation
Add butter and salt and mash for 20-30 seconds MAXIMUM, (meaning, do not mash for longer than 30 seconds), speed 3 until desired consistency is achieved. DO NOT OVERWHIP as you will end up with a claggy consistency.
NOTE the "mashing time" will depend on the size you dice your potatoes and how well cooked/mushy they are. I start with 20 seconds, check the consistency, and if still lumpy continue to 30 seconds.

Tip
This is a half quantity for 2-3 people. If you want a larger portion then double it to use 1000g potatoes and 250g milk, and cook for 20-25 minutes.
I use this method with all types of potatoes and have never failed.
For a creamier, more indulgent mash, use half cream, half milk, or all cream instead of milk.
Parmesan cheese and fresh chives can be added for extra flavour.

Mark Boys: Yes, but Mark, if you decide to cook more than 1500g of spuds, in your TM31 you'll need to do it in batches.
Today I have halved the recipe and reduced the speed to 1 and the cook time by 20% BUT it still needs the full 15 minutes. It looks lumpy but it isn't.

Easy to make. We are dairy free so I made a double batch using 200g coconut cream and 50g water. And i used salt, pepper and corriander to flavour. Absolutely fantastic recipe. For others who have asked, i have a tm5 and used my lid. I mixed mine at sp3.5 because the larger volume didnt seem to be incorporating the top half when 'mashing'. The second batch i made i used 200g of carrot and 800g potato and it was definitely my favourite.

This is my go to recipe for mashed potato.
I discovered it produces a great result using carrrots instead of potato, plus 5 mins extra cooking. Carrots still have a little texture which is nice, but I'm sure you could process without butterfly at speed 8 and get a lovely purée. And perhaps a little freshly grated nutmeg and a squeeze of lemon juice?!

Eight minutes into the cooking time and my milk is boiling over. I kept the MC on as I didn't read otherwise. Correct temp, time, weight of ingredients etc. Has anyone else had this problem? I have a TM5.
***5 stars on consistency and easy recipe. Thank you for sharing.***

I was sceptical as I have tried mash before and turned out like glue - BUT this was lovely. I like my mash a little runner so hand mixed in more milk to avoid over mixing but otherwise perfect

This is the tastiest, easiest & yummiest mashe potato you can make. I've also added sweet potato sometimes. I usually make more as we all enjoy it. Just add a little more milk. I use a mix of cream & milk. I add chopped parsley at the end. It is definitely "no fail".

This has been my go-to recipe any time I make mash for ages now! It’s so easy to chuck in and let it go while you prepare the other dishes and it turns out so beautifully. The texture is the best I have ever made, almost like a pub mash and is so rich and yummy! I’ve also done it with sweet potato or substituted some of the potato with sweet potato and it’s been perfect too.

Always had a problem with gluggy mashed potatoes in the Thermie. Your recipe changed all that. Always use it now and it is perfect. Perfect amount of potatoes for 2/3 people.

Absolutely beautiful mashed potato!! I hate all the Cookidoo mashed potato recipes. I use to love it until they changed the recipe. However this one will be my newest favourite. Thank you so very much! I did 1 tsp of salt for 1kg potato's and I had 90g of cream so used that as part of the 250g milk part as suggested by yourself. Thanks for a fabulous recipe!! Hopefully yours will end up on Cookidoo 😉

Made the mash for the first time in my TM6. Pretty good I must say. I suggest you mash in 10 second intervals though. I did mine for 20secs but it could of used a tiny bit less for a nicer consistency.
