"In America, I would say New York and New Orleans are the two most
interesting food towns. In New Orleans, they don't have a bad deli. There's no
mediocrity accepted."

-Mario Batali (1960) American chef

GARLIC MASHED POTATOES

2 lb. peeled and diced potatoes
1/2 to 1 head garlic cloves, peeled and mashed
4 tbsp. butter
1/2 to 3/4 c. heavy cream or milk

Put potatoes in heavy pan with water to cover. Bring to boil with lid on.
Cook until potatoes are soft. Drain and set aside. Return empty pan to heat.
Add butter to melt. Bring cream or milk to boil in separate pan. Mash potatoes.
Beat in butter and hot cream or milk to desired texture. Add garlic, salt,
and pepper to taste.
NOTE: For milder garlic flavor, parboil garlic along with potatoes, then
mash with potatoes.
