Mashed Red Skinned Potatoes With Scallions image

I came across this recipe in my local newspaper and thought it looked delicious. It is similar to Irish Mashed Potatoes which they call "Champ." That dish is served with half the butter melted and served in a small well on top of the potatoes.

2 lbs red potatoes, quartered
