Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Peel and Cut Potatoes

    Peel the potatoes and cut them into evenly sized chunks, about 1-2 inches.

  2. 2

    Prepare Garlic

    Peel the garlic cloves and leave them whole.

Cooking

  1. 3

    Boil Potatoes and Garlic

    In a large pot, add the chopped potatoes and whole garlic cloves. Cover them with cold water and add a pinch of salt. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat.

  2. 4

    Cook Until Tender

    Once boiling, reduce the heat to medium and let the potatoes cook for about 15-20 minutes, or until they are fork-tender.

  3. 5

    Drain and Mash

    Drain the potatoes and garlic in a colander. Return them to the pot. Use a potato masher or ricer to mash the potatoes and garlic together until smooth.

Finishing Touches

  1. 6

    Add Butter and Milk

    Add the butter and warm milk to the mashed potatoes. Stir until the butter is melted and the mixture is creamy.

  2. 7

    Season to Taste

    Season the mashed potatoes with salt and black pepper to taste. Mix well.
