Ingredients

• 2.5 lbs russet potatoes
• 1 whole garlic bulb
• 6 tbsp unsalted butter
• 0.5 cup heavy cream
• 0.25 cup whole milk
• 1 tsp salt
• 0.5 tsp black pepper
• 2 tbsp fresh parsley
• 1 tsp olive oil

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

Step 2

Cut off the top of the garlic bulb to expose the cloves. Drizzle with olive oil, wrap in foil, and roast for 30 minutes, or until the cloves are soft and golden.

Step 3

While the garlic is roasting, peel and dice the potatoes into 1-inch cubes. Rinse them under cold water to remove excess starch.

Step 4

Fill a large pot with water, add 1 teaspoon of salt, and bring to a boil. Add the potatoes and cook for 15-20 minutes, or until they are fork-tender.

Step 5

Drain the potatoes and return them to the pot. Let them sit for 2-3 minutes to allow excess moisture to evaporate.

Step 6

Squeeze the roasted garlic cloves out of their skins and add them to the pot with the potatoes.

Step 7

Add the butter, heavy cream, and milk to the potatoes. Mash everything together using a potato masher or a hand mixer until smooth and creamy.

Step 8

Season with salt and black pepper to taste. Adjust the consistency with more milk if needed.

Step 9

Transfer the mashed potatoes to a serving bowl, garnish with freshly chopped parsley, and serve warm.
