Preparing the Potatoes

Begin by placing the peeled potatoes in a large pot of cold, salted water. Bring to a boil, then simmer for 12‑15 minutes until fork‑tender. Drain well and return to the pot; allow them to steam dry for a minute. Mash the potatoes until smooth, then fold in the melted butter, beaten egg, and a pinch of salt. This mixture should be pliable but not sticky.
