A note from the chef:
I’ve made this for both Thanksgiving and Christmas my entire adult life. Carbs, glorious carbs! -Kimberly
Ingredients
- 1 head of garlic (more if you really like the garlic flavor)
- Olive Oil
- 3 lbs of russet potatoes (I like mine with the skins on)
- 4 tbs butter
- 1/4 cup buttermilk
- salt & pepper
Instructions
- Separate the garlic cloves but do not remove the peel.
- Make a “boat” out of aluminum foil, and place the garlic cloves inside.
- Drizzle with olive oil and a little salt & pepper.
- Close the foil and placed in a 350 degree oven for about 45 minutes.
- Peel the potatoes if desired, and cut into chunks.
- Boil in salted water until tender. Drain.
- Return the potatoes to the warm pot.
- Squeeze the garlic out of the cloves into the potatoes, add the butter, buttermilk, salt & pepper.
- MASH MASH MASH!
