2. Final phase:

2.1. Add into the pot:

3 TBSP of butter
½ TSP of salt
Pinch of ground pepper

Thoroughly (but genly) fold them together with a spatula.

2.2.

Taste and add salt and pepper if needed.

Tip for serving:

If you want to serve them in a beautiful way use measuring cups for plating (the perfect size is ½ or 1 Cup). Scoop potatoes with the cup, smooth with a spatula, and then flip onto the plate. If it doesn’t come out of the cup by itself, lightly tap the top of the cup.
