By draingal

Ingredients

• 4 medium/large russet potatoes
• 1 tablespoon butter
• 1 tablespoon minced fresh garlic (3-4 cloves)
• 3/4 cup water
• 1/2 cup cream
• 3/4 teaspoon salt
• 1/8 teaspoon 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 of the skin. You want to leave the rest in.
Melt the butter in a large saucepan over medium heat, then add garlic and sauté for 5 minutes.
Add the remaining ingredients to the pan and cook for 5-10 minutes while stirring often until garlic mashed potatoes are very hot.
