How to cook deliciously - Garlic and Herb Mashed Potatoes

1. Stage

Place the diced potatoes in a 6-quart saucepan and add enough water to cover them. Bring the water to a boil, then reduce the heat and let the potatoes simmer, uncovered, for 10 to 15 minutes, or until the pieces are tender when tested with a toothpick or the tip of a paring knife. Drain the potatoes and mash them, gradually adding the butter and cream cheese. Once the butter and cream cheese are fully incorporated, stir in the remaining ingredients.

2. Stage

Grease a 3-or-4 quart slow cooker, and transfer in the potatoes. Cook on low for two to three hours, until the flavors have thoroughly melded. Editor’s tip: The potatoes can be eaten immediately after they’re mashed, but time in the slow cooker allows the flavors to mature and mellow out the garlic’s sharpness.
