Cut the potatoes into small pieces. Boil them until you are able to EASILY turn the biggest piece you can find into mush by pressing a fork through it. Drain the water. Mash while adding butter, milk and sea salt. Add a bit at a time, mix/mash it in until you get the right consistency and taste. Not boiling long enough and adding the milk/salt/butter too quickly is where people screw it up. Take your time and you can have a perfect mash every time.
