Method

Preparation Steps

  1. 1

    Prepare the Potatoes

    Peel and chop the potatoes into uniform chunks. Place them in a large pot and cover with cold water.

  2. 2

    Boil the Potatoes

    Add salt to the water and bring to a boil over high heat. Once boiling, reduce the heat to medium and let simmer for about 15-20 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender.

  3. 3

    Cook the Garlic

    While the potatoes are cooking, mince the garlic cloves. In a small pan, melt 2 tablespoons of butter over low heat and add the minced garlic. Sauté until fragrant, about 2-3 minutes.

  4. 4

    Mash the Potatoes

    Once the potatoes are cooked, drain them and return them to the pot. Add the remaining butter, milk, sautéed garlic, salt, and black pepper. Mash until smooth and creamy.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary. Optionally, stir in fresh parsley for garnish. Serve warm.
