Tips for Best Mashed Potatoes in Instant Pot

  • You need to use just the right type potatoes. Use higher starch potatoes: Russets , Crème Royala, Yukon golds.
  • Use just enough water to cover them in Instant pot.
  • Mash the cooked potatoes using a masher or a food mill. I don’t recommend to mash in food processor, because you can end with gluey and unappetizing potatoes.
  • I like to cook the peeled potatoes, but you can keep the peels.
