Ingredients

4 lbs white potatoes, peeled and chopped roughly

1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened

1 cup finely chopped onion

1 stalk celery, finely chopped

1 cup milk (approximately)

6 slices bacon (fried until crisp, then crumbled)

2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh flat leaf parsley

salt

fresh ground black pepper

Directions

Place chopped potatoes in a large pot, cover with lightly salted cold water and bring to a boil; cook until tender, about 20 minutes. Drain potatoes, then return to pot.

Meanwhile, while potatoes are boiling, heat 2 tbsp of the butter in a skillet; add chopped veggies and saute until soft, about 5 minutes.

Add veggies to cooked potatoes, along with the remaining butter. With a handheld potato masher, mash well.

Slowly add milk, mashing well until potatoes reach desired consistency.

Stir in crumbled bacon and parsley. Taste; add salt and pepper if needed.

***Please note that this is a forgiving recipe--use the amounts of butter and milk that you wish, and adding an extra potato won't throw it off. Also, the celery adds a great flavor, but if you want to leave it out add a little extra onion to make up the difference.
