1
Roast the Garlic
Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Slice the top off the garlic bulb to expose the cloves. Drizzle with olive oil and wrap in aluminum foil. Roast in the oven for 30-35 minutes until soft and caramelized.
2
Prepare the Potatoes
While the garlic is roasting, peel and chop the potatoes into chunks. Place the chopped potatoes in a large pot, cover with cold water, and add a pinch of salt. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat.
3
Boil the Potatoes
Once boiling, reduce the heat to medium and cook the potatoes for about 15-20 minutes or until fork-tender. Drain the potatoes and return them to the pot.

4
Combine Ingredients
Once the garlic is roasted, squeeze the cloves out of their skins into the pot with the drained potatoes. Add butter, milk, salt, and pepper.
5
Mash the Potatoes
Using a potato masher or electric mixer, mash the potatoes and garlic together until creamy and smooth. Adjust seasoning with more salt and pepper if necessary.

6
Serve
Transfer the mashed potatoes to a serving dish and garnish with additional butter or fresh herbs if desired. Serve warm.
