Garlic Mashed Potatoes

By nperry1006

This is a great dish to have since it does so well with many recipes. Just give yourself enough time to bake and cool the potatoes.

Ingredients

• 4 medium/large russet potatoes
• 1 tbsp butter
• 1 tbsp minced fresh garlic (3-4 cloves)
• 3/4 cup water
• 1/2 cup cream
• 3/4 tsp salt
• 1/8 tsp black pepper

Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 400 degrees.

Bake the potatoes by first rubbing them lightly with oil and then baking them in the preheated oven for 1 hour until they are tender. Cool.

Mash potatoes and remove about half the skin. You want to leave the rest in.

Melt the butter in a large saucepan over medium heat, then add garlic and saute for 5 minutes.

Add the remaining ingredients to the pan and cook for 5-10 minutes while stirring often.
