1 Servings

Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
5 Russet potatoes; peeled and cut into chunks
1 cup Milk
2 ounces Butter
Salt and pepper
Nutmeg
3½ ounce Gorgonzola; crumbled
1 Head roasted garlic; cloves chopped
Chopped parsley for garnish
Chopped chives for garnish

Directions

Place potatoes in pan of hot water to cover. Boil 30 to 35 minutes. Drain potatoes. Lay on baking sheet in one layer. Bake at 325 degrees 5 to 10 minutes. Do not brown. Heat milk to a boil. Put potatoes in mixer with paddle attachment. Add butter and some of the milk and seasonings and whip until fluffy, starting slowly and speeding up after the milk is incorporated. Add only enough milk to give potatoes desired consistency.

Fold in roasted garlic and Gorgonzola with a spatula. Sprinkle parsley and chives over top. Serves 6. To roast garlic, spread peeled cloves in baking pan. Drizzle generously with oil. Bake at 450 for 10 minutes or until soft.
