Wasabi Smashed Potatoes

Place the potatoes in a pot and cover with cool water to cover by 1 inch. Bring the pot to a boil and cook for 15-20 minutes, or until the potatoes are cooked through.

To check, pierce a potato with a paring knife. If the knife slides easily in and out, the potatoes are done. Drain and return the potatoes to the pot. Smash the potatoes with a fork or potato masher. Add the butter, milk and wasabi paste. Mix to incorporate but don’t over mix ,otherwise they’ll be pasty and pasty mashed potatoes suck.

Shkiaffing it together: Portion out the potatoes on plates, throw on a three-finger pinch of minced green onions and a dribble of soy sauce.
