Garlic Mashed Potatoes
This video recipe for garlic mashed potatoes includes potatoes, cream or milk, butter, fresh grated parmesan cheese, garlic, salt and pepper. The method on the video is a bit different that that used below-- he melts the butter first, and combines the melted butter with the garlic and cream. Do not use the proportions given on the video, however-- he uses twice as much cream as you need. -

Step 2: How to Make Garlic Mashed Potatoes
- Peel and chop potatoes into 1-2" chunks
- Place potatoes in a large saucepan and cover with water.
- Bring to a boil over medium-high heat and then reduce heat to a simmer.
- Cook until potatoes are tender when pierced by a fork, about 20 minutes.
- Heat the half-and-half with the garlic in a saucepan over low heat. Do not boil.
- Remove the potatoes from the heat and drain off the water.
- Add the butter and garlic cream to the pot and mash with a whisk, potato masher, or an electric mixer.
- Add salt and pepper to taste.

Step 3: Garlic Mashed Potato Variations
- Roast the garlic first, if you like. Make sure you roast it at a low temperature, so it caramelizes instead of burning. Burned garlic has a bitter taste.
- Use red new potatoes, and leave the skins on instead of peeling them.
- Add 3/4 cup of parmesan cheese immediately before serving.
- Substitute heavy cream for the half and half, if you'd like a richer flavor.
- Add a few tablespoons of chopped fresh herbs that complement the rest of the meal. Chives, rosemary, thyme, sage, and tarragon all work well.
- Garlic mashed potatoes can be made ahead of time and kept warm in the top of a double boiler, or in a crockpot.
