Ingredients

  • 3 heads garlic, split in 1/2
  • 3 tablespoon olive oil
  • 2 pounds potatoes, peeled and diced
  • 1 stick butter, cubed
  • 1/2 to 3/4 cup heavy cream
  • Salt and white pepper

Directions

Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.

Place the garlic on a pie pan and drizzle with olive oil. Season with salt and pepper. Place in the oven and roast for 35 to 40 minutes, or until tender and golden brown. Remove from the oven and cool. Squeeze or remove the garlic cloves from the head and place in a small bowl. Using a fork, mash the garlic until smooth. Place the potatoes in a pot of salted water and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to a simmer and cook the potatoes until fork tender, about 12 to 15 minutes.

Remove the pan from the heat and drain. Place the potatoes back in the pot and return to the heat. Stir the potatoes, constantly, for 2 to 3 minutes to dehydrate the potatoes. Remove the potatoes from the heat. Add the garlic and butter. Using a hand-held masher, mash the butter and garlic into the potatoes. Add enough cream until desired texture is achieved. The potatoes should still be sort of lumpy. Season the potatoes with salt and pepper.

    Good Potatoes / Lousy Chef

    Rated: 5 stars out of 5
    These are my very favorite mashed potatoes, but I'm lousy at squeezing and/or removing the garlic from the roasted cloves. I... make a mess and get the dried skins all mixed in with it. Guess I need to see how it's done.Read more

    Simply Perfect!

    Rated: 5 stars out of 5
    The roasted garlic is so much nicer than other ways. My family loved these & they are now going to be my standard mashed... potatoes. They are more calories than some preparations but they are worth it when you want mashed potatoes occasionally. Made them with a red wine braised roast & they were killer good!Read more

    Excellent, Creamy, Mashed Potatoes!

    Rated: 5 stars out of 5
    These mashed potatoes were excellent! I used a potato ricer to "mash" the potatoes and the garlic. The texture was to die... for. The proportions of roasted garlic, cream and butter make theses potatoes just perfect.Read more

    Outstanding!

    Rated: 5 stars out of 5
    Finally, a great garlic mashed potato recipe. Just made these today for the first time. I agree, one should go easy on the... garlic(especially if first time). I used 1 large sized head. Used cream according to preference. ESSENTIAL to salt the water! Easy to make and so DELICIOUS!!!Read more
