Ingredients
- 2 lb potatoes peeled and quartered
- 6 cloves garlic peeled
- ½ cup cream or whole milk
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 1 teaspoon each: salt and pepper
- ½ cup grated Parmesan cheese
Instructions
- Add the potatoes and garlic to a pot and cover the potatoes with water. Bring the pot to a boil over high heat, then reduce the heat, cover the pot, and simmer for 12 minutes or until the potatoes are tender.
- Reserve about 1 cup of the cooking water, then drain the potatoes through a colander.
- Return the potatoes to the pot and add the cream, butter, salt, and pepper. Mash well with a potato masher, then add just enough of the reserved cooking water to make the potatoes really creamy - we usually use about ¼ cup.
- Stir the parmesan cheese into the mashed potatoes then serve.
