Mashed potatoes

[lakoda]

This delicious dish--a masterful mix of salmon, garlic mashed potatoes, and saffron sauce, is a favorite with Coral Reef Restaurant diners.


INGREDIENTS

For the garlic mashed potatoes:
3/4 pound potatoes (2 large)
3 tablespoons butter
1 1/2 tablespoons milk
1 garlic bulb, roasted
1 tablespoon minced fresh basil
Salt and pepper to taste

For Garlic Mashed Potatoes:
1. Peel and quarter potatoes and place in a large pot of water to cover. Bring to a boil.

2. Simmer until fork*tender, 20-*25 minutes.

3. Drain potatoes and return to pot. Mash with butter and milk.

4. Remove the soft part of the garlic from the roasted bulb and add with basil to potatoes. Salt and pepper to taste.

Thanks so much! I guess it must be the basil that makes the difference...I don't remember ever adding it to my mashed potatoes.

Wait a minute...I think the ones I had were supposed to have horseradish b/c I asked if it was possible to get some without it and they were able to do that. Which also leads me to believe that they were indeed fresh. I had them with a steak. The steak was good but if I had to choose between the steak and the mashed potatoes it would be the potatoes hands down!!
