1
Prepare the Potatoes
Peel the potatoes and cut them into large chunks. Place them in a large pot and cover with cold water.
2
Boil the Potatoes
Add salt to the water and bring it to a boil over high heat. Once boiling, reduce the heat to medium and cook until the potatoes are fork-tender, about 15-20 minutes.
3
Cook the Garlic
While the potatoes are boiling, peel and smash the garlic cloves. In a small saucepan, melt 2 tablespoons of butter over medium heat and add the garlic. Sauté until fragrant and lightly golden, about 2-3 minutes. Remove from heat.
4
Drain and Mash
Once the potatoes are cooked, drain them and return them to the pot. Add the remaining butter, sautéed garlic, and milk. Mash the potatoes until smooth and creamy.
5
Season
Season with salt and black pepper to taste. Adjust the consistency with more milk if needed.
6
Serve
Transfer the mashed potatoes to a serving dish. Garnish with chopped chives if desired.
