Time 1h20m

Yield 8 to 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 head garlic
Extra-virgin olive oil
3 pounds russet potatoes
Water
Kosher salt
1 1/2 cups heavy cream
3 sprigs rosemary
8 tablespoons (1 stick) unsalted butter, at room temperature
Freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Heat the oven to 400 degrees F.
  • Cut the top off the garlic and wrap it in foil leaving the top cut edge exposed. Drizzle on some olive oil and bake for 45 minutes or until the garlic is soft and caramelized. Remove from the oven and let cool a bit.
  • Meanwhile peel the potatoes, cut them into cubes, and put them into a medium sized pot. Cover them with water and add a big pinch of salt. Bring them to a boil over high heat, then lower the heat to medium and simmer until they are tender, about 20 minutes. Drain them well.
  • While the potatoes are cooking, warm the cream and rosemary in a small pot over low heat. When you are ready to mash, strain out the rosemary.
  • When the potatoes are dry but still hot, put them through a ricer into a large bowl. Squeeze in the garlic and add some of the warm cream. Mix well, then add the butter and mix again. Add more cream if they are too dry. Taste and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper. Serve immediately.

These mashed potatoes were a disappointment. They were dry and bland, and the garlic flavor was barely noticeable. I won't be making these again.

These mashed potatoes were easy to make and turned out great! I used Yukon Gold potatoes, and they were very creamy and fluffy. I also added a bit of chopped fresh parsley to the potatoes for extra flavor.

I'm not a fan of garlic, so I was hesitant to try this recipe. But I'm so glad I did! The garlic flavor was very subtle, and the potatoes were creamy and delicious. I'll definitely be making these again.

These mashed potatoes were delicious! I added a bit of extra butter and salt to taste, and they were perfect. I served them with grilled salmon and roasted vegetables, and they were a hit with the whole family.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my mashed potatoes turned out lumpy. I'm not sure what went wrong.

These mashed potatoes were a bit too garlicky for my taste, but they were still good. I would recommend using less garlic next time.

I was skeptical about the amount of garlic in this recipe, but it was perfect! The garlic flavor was subtle and didn't overpower the potatoes. These mashed potatoes were a delicious and easy side dish.

I'm not usually a fan of mashed potatoes, but these were amazing! The garlic and butter really took them to the next level. I'll definitely be making these again.
