How to make these dairy free mashed potatoes

• Peel the potatoes and give them a rince under cold water to make sure you're removing all the dirt. Then cut them in quarters.
• Put them in a saucepan and cover with cold water and a pinch of salt. Start cooking potatoes in cold water ensures that they cook evenly.
• Cook the potatoes for 20 to 25 minutes according to the size of the potatoes. Prick them with a knife to test if they are cooked: they should be tender. If not, cook them a little longer. Other option: if you prefer, you can cook them in a steamer for 20 to 30 minutes.
