- 1 1/2 pounds red potatoes, cut into large chunks
- 1 clove garlic, halved lengthwise
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley
- Place the potatoes and garlic into a large pot, and just cover with salted water. Bring to a boil; reduce heat to low, and cover. Simmer until very tender, about 20 minutes. Drain. Allow to steam dry for a minute or two.
- Return the potatoes to the pot. Pour in milk, and season with salt; mash until smooth. Stir in the parsley.
