Tasty, no-fail recipe. My husband loves these and so do I! We love them so much that no restaurant mashed potatoes can ever do! Use more garlic if you like and you can also add more pepper or a little smoked paprika. Use regular salt and it's good, using truffled salt makes it OH SO GOOD! So good, so easy! Portion size is perfect for 2 people
Ingredients:
1 red potatoes
1 yukon gold potato
3 garlic cloves
3 tablespoons heavy cream
1 -2 tablespoon butter
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
1/2 tablespoon pepper
Directions:
1. Fill a pot with water, turn on burner to boil.
2. Smash and peel garlic cloves. Add to water as it's heating
3. Bring a pot of water to boil.
4. Cut and peel potatoes (smaller pieces result in shorter cooking time.
5. Add potatoes to boiling water and cook until fork tender (usually about 20 mins).
6. Pour contents of pot into a colander to drain potatoes.
7. Pour drained potatoes back into warm pot.
8. Add butter (more is usually better, but you can get away with adding 1 tbs), 1-2 turns of the pot of heavy cream (turns into 2-3 tbs of heavy cream), 1 1/2 tsp salt (truffle salt is great if you have it), and a pinch of pepper.
9. Mash to combine, serve warm.
