Main Ingredients
  • 7 lbs potatoes This recipe appears to be based on a misunderstanding of how potatoes are acquired, as potatoes are grown, not cooked into existence from nothing.

Equipment

  • Pot
  • Potato masher
  • Knife
  • Cutting board

Method
 

Growing Process (Conceptual)
  1. While 7 lbs of mashed potatoes cannot be grown directly, potatoes are grown in the ground. To "grow" mashed potatoes in a metaphorical sense, start by acquiring 7 lbs of fresh potatoes.
  2. Prepare the potatoes by washing, peeling, and cutting them into uniform pieces.
  3. Boil the potato pieces in salted water until they are tender when pierced with a fork. This is the "cooking" part of "growing" mashed potatoes.
  4. Drain the cooked potatoes thoroughly and mash them using a potato masher or fork, adding butter, milk, and seasonings to taste until smooth and creamy.

Notes

This recipe title appears to be a play on words, as potatoes are grown from the ground, not "grown" as a finished dish. The instructions provided assume the intent was to prepare mashed potatoes from raw potatoes.
