Prepare the Potatoes

Peel, dice, and cook the potatoes in salted water until tender.

Cook the Garlic

Mince fresh garlic or roast garlic and cook in butter until fragrant.

Drain the potatoes and mash them until smooth.

Mix the Butter and Cream

Baking Tips

For extra creamy mashed potatoes, use a potato ricer or food mill instead of a masher.

You can roast the garlic ahead of time and store it in the fridge for a quicker prep.

For a richer flavor, use heavy cream instead of whole milk.

Add a sprinkle of grated Parmesan cheese for an extra savory twist.

Ingredients

Custard Cream

4 large russet potatoes, peeled and diced

4 cloves garlic, minced or 1 head roasted garlic

1/2 cup unsalted butter

1/2 cup whole milk

1/2 cup sour cream

Salt and pepper to taste

2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley (optional)

Instructions

Peel and dice the potatoes into evenly-sized chunks. Add them to a large pot of salted water and bring to a boil.

Cook the potatoes for 15-20 minutes, or until tender and easily pierced with a fork.

While the potatoes are cooking, prepare the garlic. If using fresh garlic, mince it. If using roasted garlic, squeeze the cloves out of their skins.

Drain the potatoes and return them to the pot. Mash the potatoes using a potato masher or a fork.

In a small saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat and add the garlic. Cook for 1-2 minutes until the garlic is fragrant and softened, being careful not to burn it.

Pour the melted butter and garlic mixture over the mashed potatoes. Add the milk and sour cream, then stir until the potatoes are smooth and creamy.

Season with salt and pepper to taste. Garnish with fresh parsley, if desired, and serve warm.
