How to Make Mashed Yukon Golds With Roasted Garlic

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Cut the head of garlic in half horizontally and drizzle with 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Wrap in foil and roast for 40-45 minutes, or until soft and caramelized.
  3. While the garlic roasts, peel and chop 2 pounds of Yukon Gold potatoes into roughly 1-inch pieces.
  4. Boil the potatoes in salted water until tender (about 15-20 minutes). Drain well.
  5. Squeeze the roasted garlic cloves from their skins. You should have approximately 1/4 cup of roasted garlic.
  6. In a large bowl, mash the potatoes with 1/2 cup of warm milk, 1/4 cup of butter, the roasted garlic, salt, and pepper to taste.
  7. Adjust seasonings as needed. You can add more milk for a creamier consistency.
  8. Serve immediately and enjoy!
