My daughter only eats instant so usually I don't use a masher or a mixer to make mashed potatoes.
On the rare occasions when I do have regular potatoes to mash I just use a potato masher though.

I always used a masher but on Canadian Thanksgiving a friend made mashed potatoes at my house and they used a hand mixer. SO much better! I will be using a hand mixer from now on

I mash em by hand using a masher, then a fork at an intensely high speed.
My mashed potatoes are legendary.

Either way. Masher if I'm too lazy to go get the mixer out, mixer if I'm not... I prefer it smooth without lumps.

However I would really like to get a potato ricer, so I can get them really really smooth :)

Masher.. to expend a FEW calories while I make them. Lumps mean they're real potatoes!

How do you make your mashed potatoes?

I use a potato masher because I like a little lumps!
