Directions
This mash owes its luxurious texture to the natural creaminess of Yukon gold potatoes and a touch of olive oil. At first glance 4 cloves of garlic may seem like a lot, but the garlic mellows as it steams with the potatoes so when they are mashed together you get just the right garlic infusion.
Ingredients
- 1 1/4 pounds Yukon gold potatoes, unpeeled and cut into 1-inch pieces
- 4 large cloves garlic, peeled and quartered
- 1/2 cup low-sodium chicken broth
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
Place the potatoes and garlic in a steamer basket fitted over a large pot of boiling water. Cover and steam until the potatoes are knife-tender, 12 to 15 minutes. Warm the chicken broth in a small pot on the stove or in a glass container in the microwave.
Remove the steamer basket and drain the water from the large pot. Transfer the potatoes and garlic to the pot, add the oil, salt, pepper, and broth and mash until smooth.

So. Ridiculously. Good. I had one Russett Potato and no milk in the fridge, but I was in the mood for mashed potatoes, to go with some leftover steak. I tweaked the recipe (as I normally do and boiled the potato with the garlic right in the water with a little sea salt. I used a small pat of butter instead of olive oil, and added chicken broth to taste. Best mashed potatoes I've ever made, and it yielded 2 servings. Who knew that chicken broth tastes better in potatoes than milk? I'm sold.

Really delicious and very light. It was a treat to eat something so indulgent and not feel guilty or be in a food coma afterward.

Outstanding taste and 4 cloves of garlic is just right! I've lost 27 pounds while getting back to exercise and watching my eating. I can now add these enjoyably delicious mashed potatoes to my food group. A healthy recipe and good portion size without the high calories! Excellent!!!!
