Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Potatoes

    Peel and chop the Russet potatoes into uniform pieces. Place them in a large pot and cover with cold water.

  2. 2

    Cook the Potatoes

    Add salt to the pot and bring the water to a boil. Reduce to a simmer and cook for about 15-20 minutes, or until the potatoes are fork-tender.

  3. 3

    Cook the Garlic

    While the potatoes are cooking, peel and mince the garlic cloves. In a small saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat and add the minced garlic. Sauté until fragrant, about 1-2 minutes, being careful not to burn it.

  4. 4

    Drain and Mash

    Once the potatoes are done, drain them well and return them to the pot. Add the sautéed garlic and melted butter to the potatoes.

  5. 5

    Add Cream and Season

    Pour in the heavy cream and mash the potatoes until smooth. Season with black pepper and adjust salt to taste.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Transfer the garlic mashed potatoes to a serving bowl and garnish with chopped chives if desired.
