Ingredients
- 4 lbs Russet potatoes peeled and cut into quarters
- 1/2 cup butter
- 1 tablespoon minced garlic
- 1 cup heavy cream warmed
- 1 1/2 teaspoons salt
- 1/2 teaspoon pepper
- 2 tablespoons chopped parsley
Instructions
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil.
- Add the potatoes and cook for 20 minutes or until tender.
- Drain the potatoes and add them back to the pot.
- In a small pan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the garlic and cook for 45 seconds, stirring continuously.
- Add the melted garlic butter and cream to the pot of potatoes.
- Mash the potatoes until they're smooth and creamy. Stir in the salt and pepper. Sprinkle with parsley, then serve.
Notes
- Cut your potatoes into similar sized pieces so they cook evenly.
- The easiest way to mash potatoes is with a potato masher. If you want super smooth potatoes, you can also try using a potato ricer. Another alternative is you can beat your potatoes with a hand mixer.
- Be sure not to mash your potatoes in the food processor. If you try it that way, you’ll end up with gluey potatoes that aren’t pleasant to eat.
