1 ts Onion powder
1/4 ts Garlic powder
1 1/2    Potatoes per

Figure on 1 to 1 1/2 potatoes per person. Peel and cut the potatoes into
large chunks. Boil in enough water to cover, seasoned with onion and
garlic powders, for 20 to 30 minutes. Drain the cooking water, return the
potatoes to the pot and place them on the hot burner for 1 minute to remove
excess moisture. With a potato masher, mash the potatoes until they are
free of lumps. An electric mixer will speed the process. **TIP: For a rich,
creamy texture without fat, whip in evaporated skim milk. Add a dash of
pepper and whip until fluffy.
