Well, you see the first step is to boil the potatoes. It softens the starches and makes the next step easier.

The second step is to mash roughly one half of the potatoes and set them aside.

For the third step, you will cut the remaining potatoes into roughly one inch (2.5cm) cubes. After that you will, and this is critical, stick them in a stew.

Let the stew simmer until the onions dissolve and the carrots soften.

Now you can serve the stew over the mashed potatoes and then smuggle them out of the phone in your stomache.
