    Title: Garlic Mashed Potatoes
    Categories: Potatoes
    Yield: 1 Batch

    1 lg Garlic head; split in half
    - horizontally
    1 ts Oil
    6 Russet potatoes
    1 Sweet potatoes; up to 2
    2 tb Margarine
    Potato cooking water
    Salt; to taste
    Pepper; to taste
    Chives; to taste

    Preheat oven to 350?F. Drizzle garlic with oil. Cover tightly with
    foil and bake for 30 to 40 minutes. Let cool, then squeeze out
    garlic. This can be done way in advance.

    Peel and slice potatoes, cover with water and bring to a boil. Cook 20
    minutes until fork tender. Drain, reserving water. Mash potatoes with
    margarine and garlic, adding enough potato water back in to bring it
    to the desired consistency. Add salt, pepper, and chives to taste.

    Use any left-over gravy (made from seasoned, thickened vegetable
    stock, leftover potato water, peels from the potatoes and peels from
    the garlic) as a basis for the next pot of soup stock.
