Ingredients

4 tablespoons butter, divided
2 celery ribs, finely chopped
1/2 medium onion, finely chopped
4 medium potatoes, cubed
salt and pepper

Heat a medium saucepan over medium-high heat.
Add 1 tablespoon of the butter, then the celery and onions.

Add the potatoes and just enough water to cover to the pan.
Season generously with salt.
Bring the water to a boil, cover, reduce heat to medium-low and cook until potatoes are tender.
This should take about 15 minutes.
Drain the potatoes and return the pan to a medium heat.
Stir in the cooked vegetables, 3 tablespoons of butter and milk.
Mash lightly with a masher or fork.
Add more salt, pepper and taste for seasoning.
Serve immediately or keep warm over low heat with the lid slightly opened.
