Notes

Make sure to use Yukon gold potatoes for this recipe as they are creamier and smoother than other types of potatoes.

If you don't have a potato masher or an electric mixer, you can use a fork to mash the potatoes, but they won't be as smooth and creamy.

Recipe Tips

To make this recipe even more flavorful, you can add some grated Parmesan cheese or chopped fresh herbs such as parsley, chives, or thyme. You can also use garlic powder instead of fresh garlic if you don't have any on hand. Make sure to adjust the amount of garlic powder to your liking as it is more concentrated than fresh garlic. Another tip is to add a splash of milk or cream if the mashed potatoes are too thick. Enjoy!
