Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 1 lb Russet potatoes peeled and quartered
- 0.5 cup Milk warm
- 0.25 cup Butter unsalted
- 0.5 cup Parmesan cheese grated
- 3 cloves Garlic minced
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt or to taste

Instructions
Preparation Steps
- Place the quartered potatoes in a large pot and cover with cold water by about an inch. Add a pinch of salt.
- Bring the water to a boil over high heat. Once boiling, reduce the heat to medium and simmer for 15-20 minutes, or until the potatoes are fork-tender.
- Drain the potatoes thoroughly and return them to the pot.
- Add the warm milk, butter, minced garlic, grated Parmesan cheese, salt, and black pepper to the pot.
- Mash the potatoes using a potato masher or a sturdy fork until smooth and creamy. Be careful not to over-mash, which can make them gummy.
- Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary.
- Serve hot.
Notes
For extra flavor, you can add a tablespoon of sour cream or a pinch of dried herbs like chives or parsley.
