* Step 2

Once cooked till very tender , remove from the heat and drain the water from the potatoes , then either place the drained potatoes back into the pot or into a bowl and add the broken up tablespoons full of butter into the potatoes and mash them until the butter is all melted and potatoes are fully mashed .

Once potatoes have cooled a little , place them into a piping bag , or they can be spooned onto the meat .
