Notes
Putting Alton Brown’s Creamy Garlic Mashed Potatoes recipe down to modify and work on it. The amounts have been reduced from the original recipe.
Ingredients
- 1/4 lb of potatoes
- 2 tablespoons of salt for water, and extra for flavoring
- 1 cup half and half
- 3 garlic cloves
- 3 Oz of cheese
Instructions
- Peel and dice potatoes, making sure all are relatively the same size. Place in a large saucepan, add the salt, 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 and Parmesan; stir to combine. Let stand for 5 minutes so that mixture thickens and then serve.
