Ingredients

• 2 pounds Yukon Gold potatoes
• 1.5 cups Corn kernels (fresh, frozen, or canned)
• 0.5 cup Heavy cream
• 4 tablespoons Unsalted butter
• 0.25 cup Whole milk
• 2 cloves Garlic, minced
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Ground black pepper
• 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Peel the Yukon Gold potatoes and chop them into evenly sized chunks (about 2 inches wide).

Step 2

Place the potato chunks in a large pot and cover them with cold water. Add a pinch of salt.

Step 3

Bring the pot to a boil over high heat. Once boiling, reduce to a simmer and cook the potatoes for 15-18 minutes, or until they are fork-tender.

Step 4

While the potatoes are cooking, prepare the corn. If using fresh corn, cut the kernels off the cob. If using frozen or canned corn, skip this step.

Step 5

In a small saucepan, heat 1 tablespoon of butter over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for 1-2 minutes, until fragrant.

Step 6

Add the corn kernels to the saucepan and cook for 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove from heat and set aside.

Step 7

When the potatoes are ready, drain them completely and return them to the pot. Allow them to sit for 1-2 minutes to let any remaining moisture evaporate.

Step 8

In a microwave or small saucepan, warm the heavy cream and whole milk together until just heated (do not boil).

Step 9

Use a potato masher or ricer to mash the potatoes until smooth and lump-free.

Step 10

Gradually fold in the warm cream and milk mixture, the remaining butter, and cooked corn. Mix until the mixture is creamy and well combined.

Step 11

Season the mash with salt and ground black pepper to taste. Adjust seasoning as needed.

Step 12

Transfer the creamy corn and potato mash to a serving dish and garnish with freshly chopped parsley, if desired.

Step 13

Serve hot and enjoy!
