Turning plain old mashed potato into glorious garlic mash is simplicity itself. In fact
it's so simple it doesn't need a formal recipe - instead here are three simple methods
to experiment with:
Mild Garlic Mashed Potatoes
Before boiling the potatoes, peel a couple of cloves of garlic. Add these
to the water and boil with the potatoes. After draining, mash the garlic
in to the potato. Because the garlic has been cooked with the potatoes it
will be fairly mild and slightly sweet.
Really Garlicky Mashed Potatoes
If you're a real garlic lover then don't pre-cook the garlic. Instead,
boil the potatoes as normal. Then after draining them crush a couple of cloves
of garlic and mash this into the potatoes along with the usual milk / butter /
cream you use.
Sophisticated Garlic Mash
If you have some spare time, then for the ultimate garlic mashed potatoes
make up a batch of white garlic sauce.
You can do this in advance, just warm it through a few minutes before the
potatoes finish cooking. When the potatoes are boiled, drain and mash with the
garlic sauce instead of the usual milk / butter / cream.
