5. 5

   Drain & mash the potatoes.

6. 6

   Stir in the bacon, onion & garlic (if the pieces still look too large then you may want to turn out onto a chopping board and finely chop before adding to the potatoes).

7. 7

   Stir in the tsp of wholegrain mustard.

8. 8

   Optional: stir in a tbsp of unsalted butter.

9. 9
