A delightful twist on classic mashed potatoes, featuring a creamy texture and a hint of garlic.
Wash the potatoes thoroughly and peel them if desired.
Leaving the skin on adds texture and nutrients to the dish.
Cut the potatoes into even chunks for uniform cooking.
Evenly sized pieces ensure all potatoes cook at the same rate.
Place the potatoes in a pot and cover with water. Add a pinch of salt.
Cold water helps the potatoes cook evenly from the start.
Bring the water to a boil, then reduce to a simmer and cook until the potatoes are fork-tender, about 15-20 minutes.
Check doneness by piercing a potato with a fork; it should slide in easily.
Drain the potatoes and return them to the pot.
Returning the potatoes to the pot helps evaporate excess moisture.
Mash the potatoes using a potato masher.
For an ultra-smooth texture, use a potato ricer instead of a masher.
Add the butter, cream, minced garlic, salt, and pepper to the potatoes and mix until smooth.
Warm the cream slightly before adding to prevent cooling the potatoes.
Garnish with fresh chives before serving.
Chop the chives finely for a more even distribution.
Serve warm and enjoy your creamy garlic mashed potatoes!
