ROASTED GARLIC MASHED FAUX POTATOES - LOW CARB!!!



Roasted Garlic Mashed Faux Potatoes - Low Carb!!! image

Ok, on Low Carb diets we use cauliflower as a substitute for potatoes. This particular recipe is a re-write of my Garlic mashed potato recipe. I just removed the exact same amount of potato and replaced it with the same exact amount of frozen cauliflower. Not only did I find THIS recipe much easier than using real potatoes, it tastes 10 times better and is LOADED with Vitamins! I'm forever giving this recipe out. I WILL be posting a recipe for "Low Carb, Low Fat Shepherd's Pie" soon, and I always use THIS recipe for the "Mash" potatoes you cover the Shepherd's pie with. I ask that you all please make THIS recipe for mashed potato when making my Low-carb recipe for Shepard's Pie for maximum benefits. This makes 12 SMALL servings or 6 larger ones (or 1 gluttony) Thank you!

2 lbs frozen cauliflower (2 one pound bags, you can even mix it up a bit for fun and get 1 bag just cauliflower and the other )
1 head garlic
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 (14 ounce) box of classic Philadelphia Cream Cheese (you can use 1/2 as much if you want to cut back on fat, but it will impact the recipe)

Categories     European

Time 50m

Yield 1 quart, 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 head garlic
1 tablespoon olive oil
2 lbs yukon gold potatoes
5 tablespoons butter
1 cup half-and-half
1 cup buttermilk
salt and pepper
chives

Steps:

  • Set oven to 400°F.
  • Slice off top of garlic head, barely cutting of the top of each clove.
  • Take a piece of aluminum foil and scrunch it into a "snake." Wrap this around the side of the garlic head.
  • Brush the top of the garlic head with the oil, roast in oven until top of cloves are golden brown and the cloves look to have separated from the side walls of the head, about 1 hour.
  • Meanwhile, wash and Peel the potatoes. Split in half, then cut half into four similarly sized pieces.
  • Place potatoes in a large, deep pot. Add enough water to come one inch over the potatoes. Cover, and bring to a boil over high heat. Keep and eye on the pot, so as to prevent boil-overs.
  • Boil until a paring knife can easily stab through a potato piece. When appropriate doneness is reached, drain and pour into the workbowl of a stand mixer (or keep in the pot and use a hand mixer.)
  • Whip the potatoes alone on high speed until thy are all broken down. Add the butter, continue to whip for 1-2 more minutes. It is important that the butter be added first - this will help to keep the starches in the potato from becoming gummy or gluey.
  • Slowly add the Buttermilk while the mixer is going. Slowly add the half-and-half, stopping periodically to see if he potatoes actually need the extra moisture. They may need more or less than perscribed, it is really a matter of personal preference.
  • Squeeze the roasted garlic cloves into the mashed potatoes, add the salt and pepper to taste. Mix thoroughly.
  • Garnish with snipped chives.

Tips:

  • Choose the right potatoes: Starchy potatoes, such as Russets or Yukon Golds, are best for mashed potatoes. They have a high starch content which results in a smooth and creamy texture.
  • Roast the garlic: Roasting garlic enhances its flavor and mellows it out. This step adds a delicious depth of flavor to the mashed potatoes.
  • Season well: Don't be afraid to season your mashed potatoes liberally. Salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder are all great options.
  • Use butter and milk: Butter and milk add richness and creaminess to mashed potatoes. For a vegan option, use plant-based butter and milk.
  • Mash until smooth: Use a potato masher or ricer to mash the potatoes until smooth and creamy. Avoid over-mashing, as this can make the potatoes gluey.

Conclusion:

Garlic roasted mashed potatoes are a delicious and versatile side dish that can be served with a variety of meals. They are perfect for holidays, potlucks, or everyday dinners. With just a few simple ingredients and steps, you can make this classic dish that will be loved by everyone at the table.
