Creamy Garlic Mashed Potatoes Recipe

3 1/2 pounds russet potatoes
16 fluid ounces (2 cups) half-and-half
6 cloves garlic, crushed
2 tablespoons kosher salt
6 ounces grated Parmesan

Peel and dice potatoes, making sure all are relatively the same size. Place in a large saucepan and cover with water. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat and then reduce heat to maintain a rolling boil. Cook until potatoes fall apart when poked with a fork.
Heat the half-and-half and the garlic in a medium saucepan over medium heat until simmering. Remove from heat and set aside.

Remove the potatoes from the heat and drain off the water. Mash and add the garlic-cream mixture, salt, and Parmesan; stir to combine. Let stand for 5 minutes so that mixture thickens and then serve.

Mild Garlic Mashed Potatoes
Before boiling the potatoes, peel a couple of cloves of garlic. Add these to the water and boil with the potatoes. After draining, mash the garlic in to the potato. Because the garlic has been cooked with the potatoes it will be fairly mild and slightly sweet.

Really Garlicky Mashed Potatoes
If you're a real garlic lover then don't pre-cook the garlic. Instead, boil the potatoes as normal. Then after draining them crush a couple of cloves of garlic and mash this into the potatoes along with the usual milk / butter / cream you use.

Sophisticated Garlic Mash
If you have some spare time, then for the ultimate garlic mashed potatoes make up a batch of white garlic sauce. You can do this in advance, just warm it through a few minutes before the potatoes finish cooking. When the potatoes are boiled, drain and mash with the garlic sauce instead of the usual milk / butter / cream.
