Directions: Peel the potatoes and boil until soft but not mushy. Drain the potatoes and either pass them through a food mill or mash them.

Chop the scallions into small pieces and add them to the milk. Boil for five minutes.  Then add the milk, onions, salt and pepper to the potatoes and whip. Serve with a knob of butter on top.
