Roasted Garlic Mashed Potatoes


No Recipe Image

Serving Size


6-8 servings

Ingredients


3 heads garlic, split in half
3 tablespoons olive oil
2 pounds potatoes, peeled and diced
1 stick of butter, cubed
½ - ¾ cup heavy cream
salt and white pepper

Preparation Time

10 minutes

Preparation


Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Place the garlic on a pie pan and drizzle with olive oil. Season with salt and pepper. Place in the oven and roast for 35-40 minutes, or until tender and golden brown. Remove from the oven and cool. Squeeze or remove the garlic cloves from the head and place in a small bowl. Using a fork, mash the garlic until smooth.


Place the potatoes in a pot of salted water and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to a simmer and cook the potatoes until fork tender, about 12-15 minutes. Remove the pan from the heat and drain. Place the potatoes back in the pot and return to the heat. Stir the potatoes, constantly, for 2 to 3 minutes to dehydrate the potatoes. Remove the potatoes from the heat. Add the garlic and butter. Using a hand-held masher, mash the butter and garlic into the potatoes. Add enough cream until desired texture is achieved. The potatoes should still be sort of lumpy. Season the potatoes with salt and pepper.
