Directions:
Directions:
Dice cooked potatoes into a frying pan or skillet, called a "spider" by my grandmother. Then add some cream or whole milk, but do NOT cover the potatoes. If you use milk, add a few pieces of butter. (Homemade on my Grandparents' farm). Simmer, stirring often, but do not boil, until liquid is thick. Add salt and pepper to taste. (To make it thicken more quickly, some people mix some flour with the milk or sprinkle it over the top, then stir in.)
