"Hi my name is Karl James owner of Creolesoul catering located in Round Rock, Texas and on behalf of Expert Village I'm here to continue on with this series we call making a meal and in this is part two of that series of the first side dish which we are going to make garlic mashed potatoes. Okay now our next step here is to peel our potatoes we are using just regular potatoes here but if wanted you can use new potatoes, leave the skin on. Here we are going to remove the peel, I'm using a potatoes peeler cause it is a lot quicker and you don't loose a lot of the potato when you are doing this. But if you wanted if you didn't have a potato peeler feel free to use a small knife to peel the potato. I find a lot of time using the knife you cut away more potato then you like but just take your time with it, watch your fingers, and just take the skin off. Like I said we've completely peel the potato, we would boil them in some salt water until they are really tender and soft so we can mashed those with the garlic. So I will continue to peel or potatoes, get them ready to boil and we would move on to our next step."
