PREPARATION
The process begins with selecting and cleaning the potatoes, making sure they are free of impurities and cuts, then peeling and cutting them into small cubes.
Then, place the potatoes in a large pot of cold water and bring them to a boil. Reduce the heat once they come to a boil and let them cook until they are soft and easily pierced with a fork.
While the potatoes are cooking, in a separate pan, melt the butter over medium heat and add the minced garlic cloves, sautéing until the garlic is fragrant and golden, but not burnt. This will add a deep, aromatic flavor to our mash.

Once the potatoes are cooked, drain them and mash them in a large bowl with a fork or mash them until smooth and creamy. Then, add the garlic butter, milk or cream, salt, and pepper, mixing everything until you get a smooth, creamy consistency.
Finally, taste the mash and adjust the flavors as needed. Serve hot, garnished with chopped parsley or shallots, if desired. This recipe is ideal with roasted meats or fish, or as a side dish for casual or special meals.
