Celeb chef James Martin has shared one item you should add to your mash to upgrade your meal. The chef says you should add spring onion to your mash which will add extra flavour. Having good mashed potatoes is important - they’re a comfort food that brings warmth and satisfaction to any meal.
James Martin is renowned for his mastery in creating classic British dishes with a modern twist. His expertise and approachable style have made him a household name, particularly for recipes that bring out the best in traditional comfort foods like mashed potatoes. A well-made batch of mashed potatoes can elevate a simple dinner making it into an impressive meal.
You don’t want your mash to be bland so following this easy tip can help to achieve flavour for your spuds. When mashed potatoes are done right, they should be fluffy, creamy, and perfectly seasoned but it doesn’t have to be hard. You can experiment with different add-ins like garlic, herbs, or cheese, if you don’t think spring onions are for you.
Mashed potatoes are a timeless side dish and they’ll always be a favourite at the dinner table if you’re making them for guests. The chef says that one large bunch of spring onions, finely chopped, would be the perfect amount to add into your mash . To make the perfect mash, James says you should boil the potatoes in salted water until soft.
Next, drain them and remove from the pan before leaving until just cool enough to peel. Mash them thoroughly and then boil the milk and add to the potato , together with the spring onions. Then, season and stir well and pile into a serving dish - make a well in the centre and add the butter.
Serve and enjoy!.
