GARLIC LOVERS MASHED POTATOES

Steps:

• Bring some water to the boil and drop in the garlic.
• Boil for 2 minutes, drain and peel.
• Melt half the butter in a small saucepan over a low heat and add the garlic.
• Cover and cook for 20-25 minutes, shaking the pan often.
• Meanwhile, cook the potatoes in boiling salted water until tender-15-20 minutes.
• Drain well.
• Mash the potatoes, and return them to the pan with the remaining butter, salt and pepper.
• Mash the cooked garlic with a fork, and stir in the cream, heat this mixture, then beat it into the potato mix.
• Fold through most of the chives-reserving a few for garnish-and serve.
