Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pounds Russet potatoes
- 6 whole Garlic cloves
- 0.25 cup Olive oil
- 0.5 cup Full-fat coconut milk
- 1 teaspoon Sea salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Fresh chives
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Wrap the unpeeled garlic cloves in aluminum foil with a drizzle of olive oil, then place in the oven. Roast for about 20-25 minutes until garlic is soft.
While the garlic is roasting, peel and quarter the russet potatoes.
Place the potatoes in a large pot and cover with water. Add a pinch of sea salt and bring to a boil over high heat.
Reduce the heat to a simmer and cook the potatoes for 15-20 minutes until they are fork-tender.
Drain the potatoes and return them to the pot.
Remove the garlic from the oven and let it cool slightly. Squeeze the roasted garlic out of the skins and add it to the potatoes.
Add olive oil, full-fat coconut milk, sea salt, and black pepper to the potatoes.
Mash everything together using a potato masher or an electric mixer until smooth and creamy.
Taste and adjust seasoning if needed.
Chop fresh chives and fold them into the mashed potatoes, reserving a small amount for garnish.
Serve the mashed potatoes warm, garnished with the remaining chives.
