1
Prepare the Potatoes
Peel the russet potatoes and cut them into even chunks.
2
Roast the Garlic
Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Place the unpeeled garlic cloves on a small piece of foil, drizzle with a little olive oil, wrap tightly, and roast in the oven for about 20 minutes, or until soft.
3
Boil the Potatoes
In a large pot, add the potato chunks and cover with cold water. Add 1 teaspoon of salt and bring to a boil. Cook until the potatoes are fork-tender, about 15-20 minutes.
4
Drain and Steam Dry
Once the potatoes are cooked, drain them in a colander and let them sit for a few minutes to steam dry.
5
Mash the Potatoes
Transfer the drained potatoes back to the pot. Squeeze the roasted garlic cloves into the pot, add the butter, and begin mashing until smooth.
6
Add Cream and Seasoning
Pour in the heavy cream, and season with salt and black pepper. Mix until well combined and creamy.
7
Garnish and Serve
Transfer the mashed potatoes to a serving bowl, sprinkle with chopped chives, and serve hot.
