Submitted by Bellinda

"My aunt made these for me 11 years ago. Except for the garlic. I added that because I add garlic to almost everything. These are so different but so good."

These tasted a bit different to me than the other mashed potato recipes I've made. Not quite as creamy as I'd like. Still a good tasting side.:-) Made for VIP of the month in Veg-n-Swap~

Just great! We're garlic lovers, so you had us at the aroma while the potatoes boiled. I used my potato ricer, wouldn't be without it. Thank you for sharing your aunt's recipe, *Bellinda*! Made for July Veg*n Swap.

this was delicious. really enjoyed it, the garlic i used was from chef kate's Recipe #375411, the confit stays in the fridge and really good so if you want spinach as i side i would suggest using both these recipes!
