GOLDEN GARLIC MASHED POTATOES



Golden Garlic Mashed Potatoes image

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.

Provided by PanNan

Categories     Low Protein

Time 30m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

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

Steps:

  • 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.

Provided by Anne Burrell

Categories     side-dish

Time 40m

Yield 2 to 3 servings

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 pound Yukon gold potatoes, washed and quartered
2 cloves garlic
Kosher salt
1/2 to 3/4 cup heavy cream
1/2 stick cold butter, cut into 3 pats

Steps:

  • Place the potatoes and garlic in a saucepan. Cover with 1 to 2 inches cold water and season generously with salt. The water should taste like the sea. TASTE IT! If the water is under seasoned at this point it will be hard to have a well-seasoned end product. Bring the pan of water to a boil, reduce to a simmer and cook until the potatoes are fork tender, 15 to 20 minutes. Drain the potatoes and garlic well and pass through a food mill or ricer. DO NOT use a food processor or blender. It will result in a very sticky and rubbery end product. While passing the potatoes, bring the heavy cream to a boil in a small saucepan. Once the cream has come to a boil, remove from the heat. While the potatoes are still hot, add one-third of the cream and 2 pats of the butter and stir vigorously into the potatoes. Repeat this process two more times until all of the cream and butter has been incorporated. Taste the potatoes for seasoning, and add salt if needed. Serve immediately or cover with foil and keep warm in an oven on low heat.
