Do perfect mashed potatoes exist? Many times I had thought that they were here, in my kitchen, ready to be eaten, only to find that they were less than worthy to be called perfect.
Plus, there are so many types of mashed potatoes, everyone has different preferences. Skin on, w/out skin, chunky or smooth, garlic or creamy. I am sure there are a lot more types. For me, I love a smooth creamy mashed potato. You can throw some garlic in there if you’d like.
This easy recipe is as good as Garlic Mashed Potatoes get. It is the perfect accompaniment to any dish and really tastes delicious!
Delicious Rating: Home cooks can master a great mashed potato recipe, so this is for you! The garlic flavor is not too strong nor too mild but just enough so as not to overwhelm the meal. This is definitely my go to Mashed Potato Recipe. Please share your recipe with me if you have found the ‘Perfect Mashed Potato Recipe’!

I used a potato ricer but you can do the regular mashing way. I like potato ricers and these days they are made to be more easier to assemble, use, and clean.
Serve with a Delicious Ham Spread!
