Wash and boil the potatoes. Since I boiled one potato, I microwaved the potato for 3 to 4 minutes depending on the size. If it is a small potato, then microwave for 2 to 3 minutes after marking on the top. Once done, soak it in water and peel off the skin. Mash it well.
Else, you can pressure cook the potato.
