Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Potatoes

    Peel the potatoes and cut them into quarters. Place them in a large pot and cover with cold water.

  2. 2

    Boil the Potatoes

    Add a pinch of salt to the water and bring it to a boil over high heat. Reduce the heat to medium and cook the potatoes for about 15-20 minutes, or until they are fork-tender.

  3. 3

    Cook the Garlic

    While the potatoes are boiling, peel and mince the garlic cloves. In a small saucepan, melt 1/4 cup of butter over medium heat and sauté the garlic for about 2-3 minutes until fragrant, being careful not to burn it.

  4. 4

    Mash the Potatoes

    Once the potatoes are cooked, drain them and return them to the pot. Add the sautéed garlic and the remaining butter.

  5. 5

    Mix in Milk and Seasonings

    Pour in the milk and mash the potatoes with a potato masher or fork until smooth and creamy. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Transfer the garlic mashed potatoes to a serving bowl and garnish with chives or parsley. Serve warm.
