Ingredients
- 3 lbs of russet potatoes
- ΒΌ cup +2 tbsp of Extra Virgin Olive Oil
- 1 full head of garlic
- 2 tsp of salt
- Fresh rosemary for garnish
Instructions
- Start by preheating your oven to 300, and placing your peeled garlic into a small oven safe container and pouring your Extra Virgin Olive Oil on top and baking at 300 for 45 minutes.
- Whilst your garlic and oil bake and infuse, peel and dice your potatoes and place in a large pot and fill with water. Bring to a boil and boil for 15 minutes until fork tender.
- Add your fork tender strained potatoes to a large bowl and follow in with your olive oil and garlic and mix with a hand mixer until smooth and creamy. You can mash these by hand but the hand mixer really makes this recipe so much easier!
- Lastly add your potatoes to a dish, top with rosemary and some more olive oil and flakey salt and enjoy!
