Restaurant-Style Roasted Garlic Mashed Potatoes
Ultra rich and creamy Roasted Garlic Mashed Potatoes
Equipment
- 1 Large Pot For Boiling
- 1 Potato Masher
Ingredients
- 3 Lbs Yukon Gold Potatoes
- 2 Tbsp Salt For Boiling
- ¾ Cup Heavy Cream
- 6 Tbsp Butter
- ¾ Tsp Kosher or Sea Salt
- ⅓ Cup Roasted or Confit Garlic (Directions in post)
Instructions
- Cut your potatoes in even chunks, about 2 in cubes. You do not need to peel your potatoes, but can if you prefer.
- Place your cut potatoes in your pot and cover with cold water. Add in the 2 Tbsp Salt and put on the stove to boil.
- Cook the potatoes anywhere from 20-30 minutes until just fork tender. I check my potatoes after about 15 minutes and keep checking periodically until a fork inserts easily. When they are fork tender, strain out the water and return the cooked potatoes to the pot.
- Add in your butter, cream, salt and roasted garlic. Mash your potatoes using a potato masher until you get your desired consistency. I like to have some lumps left in my mashed potatoes to give them a more rustic feel.
- To serve the potatoes, garnish with fresh herbs such as chives, sage, or parsley, and a fresh pat of butter. Enjoy!
