Tips:

To make your mashed potatoes extra creamy, use a ricer to mash them instead of a potato masher. This will help to remove any lumps and create a smooth, fluffy texture.
If you don't have a ricer, you can also mash the potatoes with a fork or an electric mixer. Just be sure to mash them until they are very smooth.
Add the milk and butter to the potatoes while they are still hot. This will help them to absorb the liquids and create a creamy texture.
Season the potatoes with salt, pepper, and garlic powder to taste. You can also add other herbs and spices, such as rosemary, thyme, or sage.
If you are making the mashed potatoes ahead of time, be sure to reheat them gently before serving. You can reheat them in the microwave or in a saucepan over low heat.

Conclusion:

These garlic mashed potatoes are a delicious and easy side dish that is perfect for any occasion. They are creamy, flavorful, and sure to be a hit with your family and friends. So next time you are looking for a quick and easy side dish, give these garlic mashed potatoes a try.
