3
Add Garlic
While the potatoes are still warm, add minced garlic cloves to the pot.
4
Blend with Olive Oil
Gradually add the extra virgin olive oil and lemon juice while mixing. Blend until smooth and creamy.
5
Season
Season with salt and pepper to taste. Mix well.
6
Serve
Transfer to a serving bowl and drizzle with a little extra olive oil on top. Serve with bread or vegetables.
