Directions

Place the potatoes in a pot and cover with cold water. Bring to a boil, and continue to boil until tender when pierced with a fork. Drain and once cool enough to handle, peel. The skins will rub off.
Mash the potato with a masher to desired smoothness. Stir in the Parsley Gremolata. Taste for seasoning then serve warm, if you are on the neutropenic diet, re-heat the potatoes with the gremolata for a few minutes.

Chef Tips

Floury potatoes are essential for making good mash. The best floury potatoes are Idahos and Russets. Yukon Gold is a good all rounder, too if you prefer them.
