This is a deliciously rich mashed potato recipe with a subtle garlic flavor. Because of the richness, the serving sizes are smaller. The recipe is very loosely based on a recipe by Anne Burrell, a chef on the Food Network.

ingredients
- 6 medium yukon gold potatoes, peeled and quartered
- 1 large garlic clove (or 2 smaller cloves)
- kosher salt
- 1⁄2 cup heavy cream
- 3 tablespoons butter
directions
- Place the potatoes and garlic in a medium sauce pan and cover with cold water. Add a generous amount of salt to the pan (I use 1 - 2 tbsp). Bring to a boil and cook until the potatoes are tender (about 20 minutes). Drain the potatoes and garlic. Mash them with a potato masher or pass through a ricer or food mill. Important - don't use a food processor or mixer if you don't want a pasty result.
- While mashing the potatoes, heat the cream for a few seconds in the microwave until it's warm. Add about a third of the cream to the potatoes along with a tbsp of butter. Stir until incorporated. Repeat the process two more times.
- Taste for seasoning and add more salt if necessary. If you need to keep them warm until the rest of the meal is finished, cover and place in a 200 degree oven.

OK, let me get this straight. Cream and butter, then cream and butter, then cream and butter again. Is there anyone on this planet who wouldn't love this? Oh my goodness, this is the kind of side dish that needs no other additions. My husband and I could just plop them in a bowl and have them for dinner. I added a few more garlic cloves because, garlic. Absolutely delicious. These will be on my Thanksgiving table and even the gravy haters, yes there is such a thing :( will love them! Thanks for the great recipe, Nan! SWT20182Reply
