Joanie's Mashed Potatoes

 

5 or 6 russet potatoes, peeled and cubed

1/2 onion, diced

2 whole cloves garlic

Water to cover potatoes

 

Place all the ingredients in a large sauce pan or Dutch oven. Bring to a

boil, reduce heat to low,

cover and simmer for 20 to 30 minutes or until potatoes, onions and garlic

are tender.

 

Drain off water and discard. Return potato mixture to the hot pan. Using a

hand held mixer or

blender, mash the potato mixture until the lumps are gone.

 

Add to mashed potatoes:

4 TB butter

1/4 tsp. white pepper

1/2 tsp. salt

1/3 cup cream or milk (or enough make the right consistency)

 

Blend until well mixed and smooth. Spoon mashed potatoes into a large

serving bowl.

 

Garnish with a large lump of butter, chopped parsley and serve.

 

Yum! Yum!
