Ingredients
 

  • 2 pound(900g) potatoes peeled
  • 4 cloves garlic peeled
  • ½ cup butter
  • ¾ cup milk
  • 2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon ground pepper

Instructions
 

  • Cut peeled potatoes into long strips. Rinse them under running water. Put them in a stainless steel pan and cover them with water. Add the garlic cloves and salt.
  • Heat the pan in medium and let the water come to a rolling boil. Lower the heat and let it simmer for 20 to 25 minutes until the potatoes are cooked through.
  • Drain the water and heat the potatoes on high for a minute or two so the water evaporates.
  • Turn the heat off and mash the potatoes using a potato masher. Add the butter and keep on mashing until it's mixed well and smooth.
  • Add the milk and whisk it into the mash until it's fluffy and light. Add ground pepper and check seasoning. Add more salt if needed.
