The Trick To Preventing Watery Mashed Potatoes

Creamy, luscious mashed potatoes is a beautiful and delicious side dish. It's the natural complement to roasted and fried meats. It's wonderfully easy to flavor as well.
Â
But if you have ever tried to make mashed potatoes at home and ended up with watery mashed potatoes, here's the tip you should know: after draining the potatoes, return it to the hot, empty pot.
Â
Then, let it steam, uncovered, for about 2 minutes. This allows the heat of the potatoes and the dry pot to completely dry out the potatoes, so it'll mash to a beautiful texture and soak up the butter and cream more easily.
