Wash and peel potatoes and cut into large chunks. Place in a medium saucepan and just cover with cold water. Bring to the boil then simmer for 20 – 25 minutes or until fork tender.
Drain potatoes and return to the dry pan. Shake pan occasionally to remove excess moisture. Mash the potatoes and stir in ¾ of the butter.
Gradually add milk, beating with a wooden spoon until smooth. Season with salt and pepper. Serve topped with remaining butter.
