Description
Creamy, fluffy garlic mashed potatoes made with red potatoes, butter, milk, sour cream, and balanced garlic flavor.
Ingredients
3 pounds red potatoes, peeled or unpeeled
4 tablespoons butter
8 ounces sour cream
½ cup whole milk
1 tablespoon minced garlic
1 to 2 teaspoons garlic powder
1 to 2 teaspoons salt
¼ teaspoon cracked black pepper
Instructions
1. Cut potatoes into quarters and place in a large pot. Cover with water about 1 inch above potatoes.
2. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, and cook 10–12 minutes until fork-tender.
3. Drain well and transfer hot potatoes to a mixing bowl.
4. Add butter, milk, sour cream, garlic, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
5. Mash gently until just combined and slightly chunky.
6. Taste, adjust seasoning, and serve warm.
Notes
Do not overmix to keep the texture fluffy. Warm dairy blends more smoothly.
