Yukon Mashed Potatoes

Method

Preparation Steps

1

Prepare the Potatoes

Peel the Yukon Gold potatoes and cut them into evenly sized chunks.

2

Boil the Potatoes

Place the potato chunks into a large pot, cover with cold water, and add salt. Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce to a simmer. Cook for about 15-20 minutes or until the potatoes are fork-tender.

3

Melt the Butter and Cream

In a small saucepan, combine the unsalted butter and heavy cream. Add minced garlic and heat gently over low heat until the butter is melted and the mixture is warm.

4

Mash the Potatoes

Drain the cooked potatoes and return them to the pot. Pour the warm butter and cream mixture over the potatoes. Mash the potatoes using a potato masher or a fork until smooth and creamy.

5

Season and Serve

Season the mashed potatoes with salt and black pepper to taste. Serve hot as a side dish.
