Creamy Garlic Mashed Potatoes in bowlI make a ton of garlic mashed potatoes every year for Thanksgiving. Every year, I have more and more health conscious guests. I make a version that is lower in fat and calories and higher in fiber. The secret to this mash is using the potatoes' own starchy water for depth in place of sticks of butter and whole milk. At the end, you add a bit of butter for that flavour. For guests who do want the full on fatty version, simply add a pat of butter to theirs and mix!

If you don't want potato skins, just peel before cutting and boiling.
This recipe multiplies perfectly.

Total Time: 30 minutes

Ingredients:

  • 3 large russet potatoes, scrubbed and cubed
  • 1 Tbsp salt

I get asked to make these mashed potatoes often. They take a bit of extra time due to the process for keeping the potatoes as fluffy as possible, but they are so worth it. I use both russet potatoes and petite gold potatoes. I take the skins off the russets, but keep the skin on the golds.

This keeps the mash fluffy and light, yet gives them a lovely strong nutty flavour. I also sautee some of the minced garlic in butter to get a roasted flavour, and use the rest of the garlic in its fresh form. Delicious!
