Rosemary, Roasted Garlic, Cheese, Mashed Potatoes

Servings: 10
Prep Time: 10 minutes
Cook Time: 20 minutes
Total Time: 30 minutes

Ingredients:

• 8-16 garlic cloves
• 3 tablespoons olive oil
• 5 large baking potatoes
• 1/2 cup milk
• 1/4 cup butter
• 1 sprig fresh rosemary
• 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
• Salt, to taste
• Pepper, to taste
• Minced fresh rosemary, for garnish

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Roasted Garlic:

   • Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
   • Place the garlic cloves in a small ovenproof bowl and drizzle with olive oil.
   • Roast in the preheated oven for about 30 minutes, or until the garlic is very soft and fragrant.
   • Once roasted, remove from the oven and allow the garlic to cool slightly before peeling. Reserve the infused olive oil for later use.

2. Cook the Potatoes:

   • While the garlic is roasting, peel the potatoes and cut them into chunks.
   • In a large pot, bring salted water to a boil and add the potatoes along with a sprig of fresh rosemary.
   • Boil the potatoes until they are tender, which should take around 20 minutes.
   • Once the potatoes are cooked, drain them, reserving about 1 cup of the cooking liquid. Discard the cooked rosemary sprig.

3. Prepare the Mashed Potatoes:

   • Transfer the drained potatoes to a large mixing bowl.
   • Add the milk, butter, roasted garlic cloves (peeled), and the reserved olive oil.
   • Begin mashing the potatoes using a potato masher or fork, adjusting the consistency with the reserved cooking liquid as needed.
   • Once the potatoes reach your desired creamy consistency, mix in the grated Parmesan cheese until well combined.
   • Season the mashed potatoes with salt and pepper to taste, and add minced fresh rosemary for an extra burst of flavor.

4. Serve:

   • Transfer the mashed potatoes to a serving dish and garnish with additional fresh rosemary sprigs for a beautiful presentation.
