Recipe - Roys Mashed Potatoes

2 pound Potatoes; peeled and cut
into large dice
One half tablespoon Salt
1 teaspoon Plus 2 tablespoons unsalted
butter
One half teaspoon Minced garlic; or to taste
1 cup Milk
Salt and freshly ground
white pepper to taste

Sometimes, there's nothing quite like good oldfashioned mashed potatoes.
It s a classic comfort food that goes well with almost everything. I like
to add a little garlic to the potatoes; if you like garlic, you can
increase the amount, and if you don't, you can leave it out completey.

Preheat the oven to 300 degrees. Bring a saucepan of water to a boil, add
the potatoes and salt, and cook over medium heat until tender, about 15 to
20 minutes. Drain the potatoes ant put them in an ovenproof bowl. Whip with
an electric mixer until smooth and fluffy. Place in the oven for 2 or 3
minutes so the excess moisture evaporates.
Melt 1 teaspoon of the butter in a small saucepan, and saut‚ the garlic
over low heat for 15 seconds. Stir the garlic into the potatoes. Place the
remaining 2 tablespoons butter and the milk in the saucepan, bring to a
boil and stir into the potatoes. Whisk until thoroughly combined and smooth
(about 2 minutes if using an electric mixer at medium speed), and season
with salt and pepper.
Yield: Serves 4 to 6 (About 4 cups)
