Ingredients

2 lb (1 kg) Yukon gold potatoes, peeled and cut into 2-inch (5-cm) chunks

4 cloves garlic, peeled

½ cup (125 mL) milk

3 tbsp (45 mL) butter

1 1/3 cups (325 mL) shredded Gruyère cheese

¼ tsp (1 mL) salt

¼ tsp (1 mL) black pepper

2 tbsp (25 mL) chopped fresh parsley

Directions

Put potatoes and garlic in a large saucepan and add enough cold water just to cover them. Bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce heat to medium-low. Simmer, covered, 20 to 25 minutes, until potatoes and garlic are very tender.

Drain well, then return potatoes and garlic to saucepan and put saucepan over low heat for a minute or so to dry out potatoes, shaking saucepan to prevent them from sticking.

Meanwhile, combine milk and butter in a small microwave-safe bowl. Microwave on high (100 %), 1 to 2 minutes, until milk is steaming and butter starts to melt. Add milk mixture, Gruyère, salt and pepper to potatoes. Mash roughly with a fork. Using an electric mixer, beat potatoes until very smooth (be careful not to overbeat or potatoes will become gluey). Taste, and add more salt and pepper if necessary. Spoon into a warm serving dish, sprinkle with parsley and serve at once.
