Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pounds Russet potatoes
- 4 cloves Garlic cloves
- 2 teaspoons Fresh rosemary
- 4 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 0.5 cups Heavy cream
- 0.5 cups Milk
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoons Black pepper
Instructions
Peel the potatoes and cut them into approximately 1-inch cubes for even cooking.
Peel the garlic cloves and set them aside.
Place the potato cubes in a large pot and cover with cold water. Add 1 teaspoon of salt to the water.
Bring the pot to a boil over medium-high heat. Reduce the heat to medium and cook for 15-20 minutes, or until the potatoes are fork-tender.
While the potatoes are boiling, finely chop the rosemary leaves and set them aside.
In a small pan, melt 1 tablespoon of butter over low heat. Add the garlic cloves and cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until softened and lightly golden.
Once the potatoes are cooked, drain them in a colander and return them to the pot.
Add the remaining 3 tablespoons of butter, the softened garlic, chopped rosemary, heavy cream, and milk to the pot with the potatoes.
Mash the potatoes with a potato masher or use a hand mixer for a creamier texture.
Season the mashed potatoes with salt and pepper to taste. Mix well.
Serve the mash warm, garnished with a sprinkle of chopped rosemary if desired.
