Instructions

  • Tips

    • Ingredient Note: A medium-sized Yukon Gold potato weighs a little less than 8 ounces, so you'd need about 7 medium-sized potatoes for this recipe.
  • Step 1

    Heat the broth, potatoes, garlic and bay leaf in 6-quart saucepot, covered,  over medium-high heat to a boil.  Reduce the heat to medium.  Cook for 10 minutes or until the potatoes are tender.  Drain the potato mixture, reserving 1 cup broth (for fluffier mashed potatoes, heat the drained potatoes in the saucepot until they're dry before mashing).  Discard the garlic and bay leaf.

  • Step 2

    Mash the potatoes.  Stir in the oil.  Gradually add the reserved broth to the potato mixture until desired consistency.  Stir in the cheese.  Season to taste.  Serve hot, drizzled with additional olive oil, if desired.
