How to make Instant Pot Mashed Potatoes:
Peal 6 large Russet potatoes and cut them into 4 pieces.
Put in an Instant Pot and add 2 cups of water.
Cover with a lid and cook on Manual high pressure for 10 minutes. Make sure that the venting knob is turned to “Sealing”!
When it is done, switch the knob to venting position and do a quick pressure release. Make sure the steam is fully released and the valve is completely down before opening the pot!
Using a potato masher, mash the potatoes.
Add butter, ½ cup of milk, salt and mix it in. Gradually add more milk until you get the perfect consistency.
