1/2 cup milk

Salt to taste
1/2 cup milk
2 tablespoons margarine
1 garlic clove, minced

Where to find ingredients
You can find fresh potatoes and basic dairy essentials in the produce and refrigerated sections of any local supermarket or neighborhood grocery store. If you prefer a richer texture, high-fat milk or a touch of heavy cream can be used as a substitute for standard milk, and butter is a classic alternative to margarine.
Preparation method
- Boil the potatoes in water until they are thoroughly tender.
- Peel the potatoes while they are still hot and pass them through a potato ricer.
- In a bowl, combine the riced potatoes with the margarine, salt, and minced garlic.
- Stir well until the margarine has completely melted and the seasonings are fully incorporated.
- Gradually pour in the milk while stirring continuously until you reach your desired consistency.
