Mmmm. Creamy, garlicky, herbed potatoes are definitely comfort food. Here are two recipes: one for mashed, and and one for roasted... I like to leave the skins on for deeper taste and more vitamins.
Garlic-Rosemary Mashed Potatoes 3-4 medium sized potatoes, cut into large bite-sized pieces, boiled and softened 3-4 tbsp butter milk or half of half 2-3 garlic cloves, minced 1-3 tsp fresh minced rosemary salt and pepper (you could even add parmesan cheese to this....) After boiling the potatoes, drain water and use your masher to, uhh, mash. As you mash, add butter, tbsp at a time, and milk. Mash and mix until creamy. Then add minced garlic and rosemary. Notice how GREAT it smells??!? Ahhhh... Add salt and pepper to taste. Roasted Garlic and Basil Potatoes 3-4 medium sized potatoes, cut into bite-sized pieces. olive oil 2-3 cloves minced garlic dried basil (OR I like to use Mrs. Dash's Tomato Basil Garlic seasoning) salt and pepper Spread potatoes across a baking sheet or dish and sprinkle with olive oil and spices. As far as the basil goes, just sprinkle across the top and Mix up with a big spoon. (I use my hands.) Make sure olive oil and spices are evenly coating the potatoes. Bake at 400 for 30-40 minutes. Check about half way through to make sure potatoes aren't sticking to the pan. If so, use a spatula to turn...
