This is truly the best garlic mashed potato recipe ever. It came from both an inspiration from an amazing restaurant in Breckenridge, CO and a recipe from Master Cook. Ingredients:
10 large potatoes, peeled and cut into 1 inch cubes |
6 garlic cloves (or equivalent) |
8 tablespoons butter |
2/3 cup whipping cream or 2/3 cup heavy cream |
3 ounces cream cheese |
2 eggs |
1/2 cup minced chives |
1 1/2 tablespoons salt |
1/2 teaspoon white pepper |
Directions:
1. Using a large pot, cover potato cubes and garlic with water. 2. Bring to a boil over medium heat, reduce to low, then simmer until tender and easily pierced by sharp knife (about 30 min). 3. Press potatoes and garlic through a ricer. 4. Stir in the rest of ingredients using a wire whisk. 5. Serve immediately or store in an ovenproof casserole dish. 6. This can be prepared up to a week ahead and frozen. 7. If defrosted warm potatoes at 350°F for 30 minutes. 8. If frozen warm at 350°F for 75 minutes. 9. (Optional Instructions- Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Boil potatoes for about 20 minutes until tender as above. Put potatoes through ricer and combine with all other ingredients including garlic which could have been minced garlic in a jar from supermarket). |
