Ingredients

1 head garlic
Olive oil
2 pounds red potatoes, washed well and quartered
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
5 tablespoons butter
3/4 cup heavy cream

Directions

Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.

Slice off the very top of the garlic head. Drizzle head with olive oil and wrap in foil. Place on a sheet tray and bake until tender and fragrant, roughly 35 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool. Remove the cloves and mash with a wooden spoon.

Place potatoes in a large stockpot and cover with cold water. Add salt and bring to a boil. Cook until fork tender and drain. Mash the potatoes until smooth.

Meanwhile heat butter and cream until butter melts. Add the roasted garlic and potatoes and mash all together.

Taste and season with salt and pepper. Serve immediately.

Rated: 5 stars out of 5

Wow, these were really creamy and really good. I had never roasted garlic, that was a bit messy and mushy, but boy it... smelled good cooking with that olive oil.....I don't even really like mashed patatoes, but my kids and husband do, they really liked them. Way to go once again Neely's!Read more

Love Them!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I used to be a server at Carrabba's Italian Grill- these are the closest I think I'll ever get to being able to make them..... Served them for company along with Emril's Chicken Marsala. They go awesome together- use the marsala as a gravy- to die for!!!.Read more

Absolutely Outstanding
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I'm a potato LOVER and this recipe definitely does not dissapoint. These mashed potatoes are absolutely great and extremely... easy to prepare for someone not so confident (but not afraid to try) in the kitchen. The perfect side for my Sunday meatloaf. Thank You NeelysRead more
