These homemade roasted garlic mashed potatoes were a big hit with my whole family and paired nicely with Asian-inspired braised beef short ribs and Asian kale salad.

Ingredients:

4 medium russet potatoes, peeled and cut into equal-sized chunks
½ cup milk
4-5 tbsp butter, to taste
Sea Salt and freshly cracked pepper, to taste
2 bulbs of roasted garlic cloves (see recipe here)

How to Make Roasted Garlic Mashed Potatoes

Place potatoes in a large pot of well-salted water. Boil the potatoes for about 25 minutes, or until fork-tender.

Drain the potatoes in a strainer, then return them to the pot.

Place the milk and butter in a microwave-safe bowl and cook for 30 seconds or until the butter has melted and the milk is warm.

Pour the warm milk/butter mixture on the potatoes, squeeze the roasted garlic out of its skin and onto the potatoes, then season with sea salt and freshly cracked pepper.

Mash by hand or with a hand mixer until smooth and fluffy. Taste and re-season if needed.

Serve plain or with butter and extra black pepper. Enjoy!
