BEST GARLIC MASHED POTATOES RECIPE IN THE WORLD RECIPES

Steps:

• Place peeled and cubed potatoes into a medium size saucepan.
• Cover with water,place on stove and cook on medium heat until fork tender, approximately 10 to 15 minutes depending on the size of cubes and type of potato.
• Remove from heat and drain any remaining water.
• Place potatoes into mixing bowl.
• Add butter and start to whip potatoes with mixer set on 7 or 8.
• Add sour cream slowly and whip until smooth and creamy.
• (The amount of sour cream may vary depending on the type of potato used, Yukon gold uses all, some other softer potatoes do not need all of the sour cream.) Pour potatoes into a cassole dish sprayed with cooking spray.
• Top with as much cheese as desired.
• Bake at 350 for approximately 20 minutes or until cheese bubbles and edges start to brown.
• Remove from oven and let sit for five minutes.
• If you are serving a meat that has a gravy, then leave off the cheese but still bake the potatoes until bubbly.

Steps:

• Peel and cut the potatoes into pieces that are generally the same size. Bring a large pot of water to a simmer and add the potatoes. Bring to a boil and cook for 30 to 35 minutes. When they’re cooked through, the fork should easily slide into the potatoes with no resistance, and the potatoes should almost, but not totally, fall apart.
• Drain the potatoes in a large colander. When the potatoes have finished draining, place them back into the dry pot and put the pot on the stove. Mash the potatoes over low heat, allowing all the steam to escape, before adding in all the other ingredients.
• Turn off the stove and add 1 ½ sticks of butter, an 8-ounce package of cream cheese and about ½ cup of half-and-half. Mash, mash, mash! Next, add about ½ teaspoon of Lawry’s Seasoning Salt and ½ a teaspoon of black pepper.
• Stir well and place in a medium-sized baking dish. Throw a few pats of butter over the top of the potatoes and place them in a 350-degree oven and heat until butter is melted and potatoes are warmed through.
