Instructions
Creating Rosemary Garlic Mashed Potatoes is straightforward if you follow these simple steps:
1. Prepare Potatoes: Peel and cut the russet potatoes into evenly sized chunks.
2. Boil Potatoes: Place the potato chunks in a large pot and cover them with cold water. Add a pinch of salt. Bring the water to a boil over medium-high heat.
3. Cook Until Tender: Once boiling, reduce the heat and let the potatoes simmer for about 15-20 minutes or until fork-tender.
4. Saute Garlic: While the potatoes are cooking, melt the butter in a small skillet over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 1-2 minutes. Be careful not to let it burn.
5. Drain Potatoes: Once the potatoes are cooked, drain them well and return them to the pot.
6. Mash Potatoes: Using a potato masher or a ricer, mash the potatoes until smooth.
7. Add Cream and Garlic: Slowly stir in the heavy cream and the sautéed garlic with butter. Mix until well combined and creamy.
8. Incorporate Rosemary: Fold in the chopped rosemary, and season with salt and black pepper to taste.
9. Adjust Consistency: If needed, add more heavy cream for a creamier consistency.
10. Serve Warm: Transfer the mashed potatoes to a serving bowl and garnish with additional rosemary if desired.
These steps will guide you in creating a dish that is not only incredible but also a true indulgence.
