Categories     side-dish

Time 50m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

1/2 cup garlic cloves, peeled (about 1 head)
1 cup extra-virgin olive oil
3 pounds Yukon gold potatoes, peeled and quartered
Kosher salt
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1/4 cup heavy cream, half-and-half, or creme fraiche

Steps:

  • In a small saucepan, bring the garlic and oil to a boil, then turn the heat to low and cook uncovered for 5 minutes, or until the garlic is lightly browned. Turn off the heat and set aside. The garlic will continue to cook in the oil.
  • Meanwhile, place the potatoes in a large pot of salted water, bring to a boil, and cook for 15 to 20 minutes, until the potatoes are very tender. With a slotted spoon, remove the potatoes from the water, reserving the cooking water, and remove the garlic from the oil, reserving the oil.
  • Process the potatoes and garlic through a food mill fitted with the medium disk. Add the reserved olive oil, 2 teaspoons of salt, the pepper, cream, and 3/4 cup of the cooking water to the potatoes and mix with a wooden spoon. Add more cooking water, if necessary, until the potatoes are creamy but still firm. Season, to taste, and serve hot.

GARLIC MASHED POTATO WITH OLIVE OIL

Make Delia's garlic mash potato recipe even better with a glug of garlic infused olive oil.

Provided by Delia Smith

Categories     Side dishes

Yield Serves 4

Number Of Ingredients 5

900g/2lb potatoes (Désirée or King Edward)
50g/2oz butter
3 fat garlic cloves, halved lengthways
8 tbsp best quality extra virgin olive oil
salt and freshly millled black pepper

Steps:

  • First place the garlic and olive oil in a small saucepan over the gentlest heat possible - a heat diffuser is good for this - and leave for 1 hour for the garlic to infuse and become really soft.
  • Use a potato peeler to pare off the skins as thinly as possible and then cut the potatoes into even-sized chunks, not too small. If they are large, quarter them and if they are small, halve them.
  • Put the potato chunks in a large saucepan, then pour boiling water over them, add 1 dessertspoon of salt, put on a lid and simmer gently until they are absolutely tender - they should take approximately 25 minutes. The way to tell whether they are ready is to pierce them with a skewer in the thickest part; the potato should not be hard in the centre. And you need to be careful here, because if they are slightly underdone you do get lumps.
  • When the potatoes are cooked, drain them. Cover them with a clean tea cloth to absorb some of the steam for about 5 minutes, then using an electric whisk on a low speed, begin to break them up using half the garlic and oil. As soon as all that is incorporated, add the rest of the garlic and oil and whisk until smooth, seasoning well with salt and freshly milled black pepper.

OLIVE OIL GARLIC MASHED POTATOES



Olive Oil Garlic Mashed Potatoes image

I love this recipe! Personally, I like potatoes that have an irregular texture, so I'm posting the recipe like that. You might want to use more broth and another mashing technique if you like them smoother and lighter.

Provided by Elie de Combys

Categories     Mashed Potatoes

Time 35m

Yield 4-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

8 medium yellow potatoes
1/2 cup vegetable broth
1/3 cup olive oil
1/2 teaspoon seasoning salt
1/2 teaspoon granulated garlic
1 pinch black pepper

Steps:

  • Place the potatoes, unpeeled, in a pot and cover them with cold unsalted water. They will be much tastier if you cook them without peeling.
  • Bring them to a boil, covered, then take the lid off and reduce the heat to medium (or higher so it doesn't stop boiling), and cook for 25-30 minutes or until they are easily pierced with a fork. They must still be somewhat firm, as opposed to grainy.
  • Drain and place them back into the pot, on the stove, and shake them until they are dry.
  • Peel them with a knife. Try to take away as little flesh as possible, it's ok if there's a small amount of skin left.
  • Put them back in the pot with the rest of the ingredients and mash with a potato masher until you have lumpy puree. This puree will be quite heavy and is made to be that way.

Tips:

  • For the best results, use Yukon Gold or Russet potatoes. These potatoes have a high starch content, which makes them creamy and smooth when mashed.
  • Peel the potatoes before boiling them. This will help the potatoes cook evenly.
  • Boil the potatoes in salted water. This will help to flavor the potatoes and prevent them from becoming bland.
  • Drain the potatoes thoroughly before mashing them. This will help to prevent the potatoes from becoming watery.
  • Use a potato ricer to mash the potatoes. This will give you the smoothest, creamiest mashed potatoes.
  • Add the olive oil, garlic, butter, and milk to the potatoes while they are still hot. This will help the ingredients to blend together smoothly.
  • Season the mashed potatoes to taste with salt, pepper, and any other desired seasonings.
  • Serve the mashed potatoes immediately, or store them in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.

Conclusion:

Olive oil and garlic mashed potatoes are a delicious and easy-to-make side dish that can be served with a variety of meals. The potatoes are creamy and smooth, with a subtle flavor of olive oil and garlic. These mashed potatoes are sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
