Perfect Double Cream Garlic Mashed Potatoes Recipe 45

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Place garlic heads in a baking dish and drizzle each with 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Bake in the preheated oven until garlic is soft and brown, about 45 minutes.
• Bring a large pot of water to a boil and stir in sea salt. Cook potatoes in the salted water until tender, about 30 minutes. Drain.
• Transfer potatoes to a large bowl and add sour cream, cream cheese, butter, salt, and black pepper to the bowl. Cover bowl with a lid or a piece of aluminum foil and let mixture stand to soften butter and cream cheese, about 5 minutes.
• Squeeze roasted garlic from the cloves into the potato mixture; mash potatoes until smooth, creamy, and thoroughly combined.

Steps:

• Peel and dice potatoes, making sure all are relatively the same size. Place in a large saucepan, add the salt, and cover with water. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat and then reduce heat to maintain a rolling boil. Cook until potatoes fall apart when poked with a fork.
• Heat the half-and-half and the garlic in a medium saucepan over medium heat until simmering. Remove from heat and set aside.
• Remove the potatoes from the heat and drain off the water. Mash and add the garlic-cream mixture and Parmesan; stir to combine. Let stand for 5 minutes so that mixture thickens and then serve.

Steps:

• Place potatoes into a large pot and cover with salted water; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until tender, 20 to 25 minutes.
• While potatoes are cooking, melt butter over medium-low heat in a small saucepan. Add garlic and saute until soft, about 5 minutes.
• Drain potatoes and return to the pot. Add garlic-butter mixture, milk, Parmesan cheese, parsley, sea salt, and pepper; mash until smooth.

Steps:

• Equipment needed: Food Mill, so worth the investment. Recommended: OXO brand, easily found at Bed Bath & Beyond type stores. Cook potatoes and garlic cloves in salted water (about 1 tablespoon of kosher salt--not table salt) Drain the potatoes and garlic, and return the the pot on low heat-- this allows excess water to evaporate, about 2 to 3 minutes. Place potatoes and garlic into food mill, and using larges disk, turn handle to rice the potatoes back into your cooking pot. Add the cream cheese and allow to melt from the heat of the potatoes. Add the heavy cream (slightly warmed). Half & half works, but the heavy cream is what tastes best. Stir and taste; add more salt, if necessary. Cover and keep warm, on lowest heat, for up to 15 minutes-- or for longer time, keep warm in a low heated oven.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Place garlic cloves in aluminum foil and drizzle with olive oil.
• Roast in the preheated oven until very soft, about 25 minutes.
• Meanwhile, place potatoes into a large pot and cover with salted water; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until tender, about 20 minutes. Drain.
• Mix potatoes, half-and-half, and melted butter until well combined. Add cream cheese, sour cream, and roasted garlic; mix with a hand mixer until well blended. Season with salt and pepper.
