A delightful twist on classic mashed potatoes, infused with garlic and fresh herbs for a flavorful and creamy side dish.
Fill a large pot halfway with water and bring it to a boil.
Adding a pinch of salt to the water can enhance the flavor of the potatoes.
Add the potatoes to the boiling water and cook until they are tender, about 15-20 minutes.
You can test the doneness of the potatoes by piercing them with a fork; they should slide off easily.
Drain the potatoes using a colander and return them to the pot.
Allow the potatoes to sit in the pot for a minute to evaporate excess moisture.
Add the butter, minced garlic, chopped scallions, thyme, and half-and-half to the potatoes.
Warm the butter and half-and-half slightly before adding to ensure they mix well.
Mash the potatoes until smooth and creamy, adjusting seasoning with salt and pepper to taste.
For a chunkier texture, mash lightly, leaving some potato pieces intact.
Serve the mashed potatoes hot, garnished with additional herbs if desired.
Serve immediately to enjoy the best texture and flavor.
