Description

These creamy garlic mashed potatoes are so good, you can serve them plain—no butter or gravy is needed. This is the only way we prepare mashed potatoes. —Valerie Mitchell, Olathe, Kansas

Very good and creamy. I am making this to go with our Christmas Prime Rib. Ill be adding even more garlic though.

I had to use a bit more milk but had a great flavor. Will add these into my rotation.

This is my favorite mashed potato recipe, and I use it a lot for potluck when I know people are going to want mashed potatoes. I made this for Thanksgiving a few years ago, and they were gone before my moms. I also use them for shepherds pie. Excellent mashed potatoes.

Very good! I used minced garlic and cooked it over the stove with the butter and added them after the potatoes were done.

Instead of putting garlic with the boiling potatoes, roast the garlic then combine with softened butter. No Parmesian please.

Boiling the garlic cloves with the potatoes doesnt give these potatoes much of a garlic flavor. Instead, I chop them then saute them in some butter while the potatoes are cooking, until they are very soft, then mash them with the cooked potatoes and other ingredients. I also use 1/4 cup half & half and 1/4 cup skim milk. Makes them even creamier.

This is the only way I do it too. Much less mess than our moms ever had. I dont peel and I leave out parmesan to lower sodium content but we love them.

Nice, easy recipe, but I did not get much of a garlic or Parmesan. In fact, next time I would cut the Parmesan all together. I peeled half of the potatoes, left half with their red skins.

I didnt taste the garlic or parmesan in these potatoes, but it was still good.

Didnt have Parmesan cheese, so I substituted it with hummus. My dad hates hummus. He usually hogs all of the food, so I thought that the addition would deter him, although I didnt tell him. It didnt. I still got the satisfaction of making him consume something that he so hated. 5 stars.
