From Cooking Pleasures magazine. I used the lesser amount of chipotle powder and these were spicy enough for me.

Time 45m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

6 garlic cloves, divided
2 lbs russet potatoes, unpeeled, cut into 2-inch pieces
1 1/2 teaspoons salt, divided
1/4 cup butter, cut up
1/4-1/2 teaspoon dried chipotle powder
1/3 cup whole milk
2 tablespoons sour cream
1/4 teaspoon fresh ground pepper

Steps:

  • Peel garlic. Smash 4 of the cloves and mince the 2 remaining cloves.
  • Place potatoes and smashed garlic in large saucepan, adding enough water to cover by an inch. Add 1 tsp salt and bring to a boil.
  • Boil gently over medium heat for 20 to 25 minutes or until potatoes are tender when pierced with a fork. Drain well.
  • Meanwhile, melt butter in a small skillet over medium heat. Add minced garlic and chipotle powder. Cook 30 to 60 seconds until fragrant.
  • Bring milk to a simmer over medium heat in small saucepan. Keep warm.
  • Return potatoes to large saucepan and cook over medium low heat 1 to 2 minutes or until excess moisture evaporates, shaking pan as the potatoes heat. Potatoes will look dull and not moist.
  • Mash potatoes with a masher until coarsely mashed.
  • Add butter mixture and slowly stir in milk.
  • Add sour cream, remaining 1/2 tsp salt and pepper.
  • Stir vigorously to fluff.
