Ingredients

1 head garlic, top sliced off
2 tablespoons olive oil
6 to 8 large Yukon gold potatoes, peeled and quartered
1 tablespoon salt
1 cup milk, warm
1/2 stick butter, softened
Salt and black pepper, to taste

Directions

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Place the cut garlic bulb on a piece of aluminum foil and drizzle with olive oil. Close the packet and bake in the oven for 40 minutes until softened. Put the cut potatoes in a large stockpot, cover with cold water, and add salt. Bring to a boil, then simmer until the potatoes are fork tender, about 20 to 30 minutes. Drain well in a colander. While the potatoes are still warm, press them through a potato ricer or food mill and into a mixing bowl. Whip in the warm milk and softened butter until incorporated and the potatoes are fluffy. Squeeze the roasted garlic cloves out of the skins. Add the garlic pulp to the potatoes. Beat again; season with salt and pepper.

Now elected to make these every Thanksgiving!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

My fiance's family is Persian and all the kids who were born here complain that the family doesn't know how to make mashed... potatoes for Thanksgiving. So, last year I made these and not only were the kids but all the adults were taste testing these long before dinner was ready! Needless to say, I've been elected the "official" mashed potatoe maker from now on. Thanks Tyler and Food Network for such a GREAT recipe! I thought I liked my potatoes before, these are even better. Although, since for a special occasion I do mix with some whole cream too. SabirnaRead more

I made this dish to accompany Tyler's 911 Beef Brisket. Both recipes turned out fantastic and recieved raves from my in-laws.... I made this potato recipe as stated. It turned out creamy, with just a nice hint of garlic. It was very tasty, easy to make and pretty much fail proof. I highly recommend this dish. Thanks Tyler, for another fabulous recipe.Read more

Delicious!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I used Russet potatoes because that was all I had, and they were still delicious! My husband loved them. I can't wait to... make them next time with Yukon Gold. I used a little less butter and a little more milk. So creamy!Read more

Best Potatoes Ever!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I loved these! The only thing was that I couldn't mash the garlic, so it stayed in little cloves. Other than that, it was... amazngly creamy, and delicious! Maybe I'll add a little more salt next time, for more flavor, I encourage anyone and everyone to try these!Read more
