Parmesan Mashed Potatoes

From Real Mom Kitchen

These were delicious.  I didn't roast the garlic, I just pressed some through my garlic press.  The potatoes tasted great!

Serves 6

4 lbs peeled, cubed potatoes
5 Tbsp butter
1 cup fresh grated Parmesan cheese
4 cloves roasted garlic (directions in notes)
1 to1½ cups milk (any milk will do, I used skim)
1 Tbsp salt, or to taste
fresh cracked black pepper to taste

DIRECTIONS:

Place potatoes into a large pot of cold water. Place onto stove top over high heat and bring to a boil. Once water is boiling, cook for 10-12 minutes or until potatoes are fork tender.

Drain and transfer to the work bowl of a stand or electric mixer. Mix on low until potatoes are mashed then add butter, Parmesan, garlic, milk, salt and pepper. Season to taste if needed.

For thinner mashed potatoes add more milk, slowly until your desired consistency.
Scoop mashed potatoes onto serving plates and top with pork chops and soup gravy from crock pot. I put a little parsley on top to serve. Serves 6.

Notes:
Roasted Garlic – Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Place bulb of garlic with skins on, wrap lightly in tin foil and bake for 1 hour. Remove from foil and let cool for 15 minutes. Remove garlic from skins, place in a bowl and mash with a fork until completely mashed. Set aside. One garlic bulb will have around 12 cloves.
