Ingredients
- 3 1/2 pounds russet potatoes
- 2 tablespoons kosher salt
- 16 fluid ounces (2 cups) half-and-half
- 6 cloves garlic, crushed
- 6 ounces grated Parmesan
Directions
Peel and dice potatoes, making sure all are relatively the same size. Place in a large saucepan, add the salt, and cover with water. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat and then reduce heat to maintain a rolling boil. Cook until potatoes fall apart when poked with a fork.
Heat the half-and-half and the garlic in a medium saucepan over medium heat until simmering. Remove from heat and set aside.
Remove the potatoes from the heat and drain off the water. Mash and add the garlic-cream mixture and Parmesan; stir to combine. Let stand for 5 minutes so that mixture thickens and then serve.

Love me some Paula Dean, but Alton's recipe for Garlic Mashed Potatoes is just a cut above in my book. Great idea, have a Bobby Flay type throw down between Alton and Paula on Garlic Mashed Potatoes and let me be a judge.

I felt the smashed garlic was still too large after simmering in the half and half and using the potato masher on them so I strained the mixture before adding it to the potatoes. I love the creamy texture and taste even without any butter!

Very tasty and easy to make. I will use pre-minced garlic next time to get more garlic flavor.
