Personal Notes:
I don't use a steamer basket. About 10 minutes into cooking the potatoes, I put the broccoli florets on top of the potatoes and steamed them right on the potatoes. I used tongs to take broccoli off the potatoes and put in food processor. Drain potatoes and mash right in the pan. Proceed as usual.
