Ingredients:

  • 2 pounds of potatoes

  • 1 cup of milk

  • 4 scallions

  • 1/2 cup of butter

Instructions:

  1. Peel and cut the potatoes into chunks. Place them in a large pot, cover with water, and bring to a boil. Cook until the potatoes are tender.

  3. Drain the cooked potatoes and return them to the pot. Mash them until they are smooth.

  4. Pour the milk and scallion mixture into the potatoes, stirring well to combine.
