a potato masher or spoon to soften to the
consistency you like.
( I like to leave some chunks for texture)
Add
spices and milk.
Reduce heat
Add cheese if desired and let simmer
fo
r 10
minutes,
stirring occasionally.
Note: I tend to like strong flavors.
If you like a more subtle flavor,
start with smaller amounts
and adjust till it suits you.

Take everything, toss it into a pressure
cooker and cook for 15 minutes or bring

few hours. Then add some water (if
