skin half of each potato, boil them, drain water, return to pot, add a very small amount of garlic paste, little bit of milk, some sour cream, lots of margarine (not butter), and California style onion powder (with the parsley flakes). Believe it or not, for some reason the onion powder makes potatoes taste more garlicy then the garlic paste does...oh, also add salt and fresh ground black pepper (never white). mash and enjoy.

~ Good luck! I hope it turns out GREAT! =)
red potatoes are my favorite too.


First, take a bulb of garlic (the whole bulb). Cut off the top, cover in foil and bake for 30 minutes in the oven. Each clove now can be popped out of its skin and will be sweet but with the flavor of garlic that you want. (It is also good to rub onto bread.)


Keep the skin on, but cut up the potatoes and boil until slightly tender. Do not overcook.


Smash the potatoes with a masher or ricer into a bowl. Add butter and/or milk or olive oil (makes the potatoes creamy and healthy), and the roasted garlic. Sprinkle with chives or parsely and enjoy!
