We boiled the garlic with the potatoes so the softened cloves would infuse a deep garlic flavor throughout the potatoes when they're mashed.
Ingredients
Uncooked potato
4 large, Idaho variety, peeled and cut into 2-inch chunks
Garlic
8 clove(s), peeled
Light sour cream
1 cup(s)
1% low fat buttermilk
½ cup(s)
Fresh parsley
¼ cup(s), chopped
Table salt
¾ tsp, or to taste
Black pepper
¼ tsp, or to taste
Instructions
1
Place the potatoes and garlic in a large saucepan; fill with enough water to cover them.
2
Set pan over high heat; bring to a boil. Boil until the potatoes are fork-tender, about 8 minutes; drain and return potatoes and garlic to pan. Add sour cream to pan; stir and then mash mixture until almost smooth (or desired consistency). Stir in buttermilk. Fold in parsley; season to taste with salt and pepper.
