Creamy Garlicy Rosemary Mash Potato

Mash can be so boring so to keep it interesting I usually jazz it up.
One of those days where I am pressed for time because I need to leave for work soon and the kids need dinner.

Last night my husband was in charge of dinner - I got home at 8.30pm .. Kids had not been fed .. Animals had not been fed! So after working my arse off, I had to cook dinner for the kidlets and dish up some food for the two cats, dog and fish!

So note to myself: In future, make sure you make dinner before you go to work always!!!! lol


INGREDIENTS

I am feeding two teenagers

6 medium whole potatoes with skin on
50g Butter
1/4 Cup thickened Cream
Fresh Rosemary - chopped
2 garlic cloves crushed
Rock Salt

METHOD

In a large pot of salted water, add the potatoes whole - make sure the water covers the potatoes.

Boil the potatoes for about 30 minutes.

Meanwhile - add your chopped rosemary and rock salt to a pestle and ground until you have a nice smooth rosemary salt.

Once your potatoes are cooked (stick a skewer in them and if they go right through they are ready)
Drain the potatoes and leave to cool

Once cooled, peel the skin off with your fingers, the skin will just slide off .. Add potatoes back to the pot you cooked them in. Add butter, cream, garlic and your rosemary salt and Mash until smooth ..
