Ingredients List
- 3 russet potatoes (approx. 1 1/2 - 2 pounds)
- 2 tablespoons kosher salt
- 3/4 cup heavy cream
- 2 cloves garlic, crushed
- 2.5 ounces grated Gruyère, Parmesan, Cheddar cheese or mix
Directions
1. Peel and dice potatoes, making sure all are relatively the same size. Put potatoes into a saucepan. Add 2 tbsp salt. Add water until potatoes are covered. Bring to boil, then reduce heat to maintain a rolling boil. Cook until potatoes fall apart when poked with a fork (approximately 20-30 minutes).
2. Heat the heavy cream and the garlic in a medium saucepan over medium heat until it's simmering. Remove from heat and set aside.
3. Remove the potatoes from the heat and drain off the water. Put hot potatoes into a bowl. Mash and add the garlic-cream mixture and cheese; stir to combine.
4. Let stand for 5 minutes so that mixture thickens. Serve warm.
