Haroset (חרוסת) is a mixture of apples, nuts, cinnamon, wine, and honey (although there are many recipes), and it represents the mortar that the ancient Israelites used to build the store-cities of Pharaoh.
Today, we eat matzos (special hardtack prepared in accordance with Jewish law), plus wine, a sprig of parsley, bitter herbs (such as Romaine lettuce and horseradish) and haroset (a mixture of apples, wine, cinnamon and nuts), plus the holiday meal. These are had as part of the Passover Seder, in which the Exodus from Egypt is retold at length. When the Holy Temple still stood, the Passover sacrifice was part of the group meal (Exodus ch.12).
The Passover celebration commemorates the flight from Egypt. There was no Passover meal before the flight.
The ritual foods at a Passover seder are Matzah (unleavened bread), Maror (bitter herbs), Karpas (a green vegetable, usually parsley), Beitzah (a roasted, hard boiled egg), Haroset (a mixture of apples, nuts, cinnamon, wine) and Z'roa (a shank bone, usually represented by a turkey neck or a beet). Four cups of wine are traditional as well. The main course can be almost anything, as long as it complies with Passover dietary laws.

Passover is not a time of fasting, so Jewish people can eat during the middle of the day during Passover.
God commanded the Israelites to keep the Passover festival (Exodus ch.12). In giving us its details, God incorporated observances that commemorate various aspects of the events of the Exodus, such as the unleavened bread (matzah) that we must eat on Passover, and which our forefathers baked in their haste to leave Egypt. The bitter herbs (of the Seder meal) are reminiscent of the harshness of the slavery, the salt water is similar to tears, the haroset-food is similar to bricklayers' mortar, etc. See also:The details of the Passover Seder
It was about the meal in which the lamb would be sacrificed.
Mashed potatoes needs no special ingredients for Passover although they will need to be prepared in a Passover bowl with Passover utensils and without the addition of baking powder. Simply boil and mash the potatoes with milk and butter if having a milk meal or use dairy free margarine and no milk for a meat meal.
