Wonderful Champ mashed potatoes

Spring onions transform ‘ordinary’ mashed potatoes into something rather special.

Serves 2

Potatoes 450g (1lb), peeled and quartered
Spring onions 5, trimmed and finely sliced
Milk 150ml ( ¼ pint)
Unsalted butter 50g (2oz)
Double cream 60ml (2fl oz)

1 Boil potatoes for 15-20 minutes in salted water until tender when tested with a knife.

2 Soften spring onions in simmering milk for 2-3 minutes, drain.

3 Drain and dry potatoes over a low heat. Cover with a lid and shake to start breaking up.

4 Add butter and cream, a little at a time, while mashing the potatoes. Season and mash until fluffy and creamy. Stir in spring onions and serve.
