Instant mashed potatoes are potatoes that have been through an industrial process of cooking, mashing, and drying to yield a packaged convenience food that can be reconstituted in the home in seconds by adding hot water or milk, producing a close approximation of mashed potatoes with very little expenditure of time and effort
The potatoes are freeze-dried.

Instant mashed potatoes are potatoes that have been through an industrial process of cooking, mashing, and drying to yield a packaged convenience food that can be reconstituted in the home in seconds by adding hot water or milk, producing a close approximation of mashed potatoes with very little expenditure of time and effort. They come in many different flavours, including (non-exhaustively) chive, garlic, and butter. Instant mashed potatoes are occasionally packaged with instant gravy.
