Worthy of a Special Occasion

Yukon gold potatoes taste richer and whip up creamier than russets, but you can use either variety.

Yield: 8 servings (serving size: 1/2 cup)

Ingredients

  • 2  whole garlic heads
  • 2  pounds  cubed peeled Yukon gold potato
  • 1  cup  chopped onion
  • 2  tablespoons  plain fat-free yogurt
  • 1  teaspoon  dried rosemary, chopped
  • 1/2  teaspoon  salt
  • 1/4  teaspoon  freshly ground black pepper

Preparation

Preheat oven to 350°.

Remove white papery skin from garlic heads (do not peel or separate the cloves). Wrap each head separately in foil. Bake at 350° for 1 hour; cool 10 minutes. Separate cloves; squeeze to extract garlic pulp. Discard skins.

Place potato and onion in a saucepan; cover with water, and bring to a boil. Cover, reduce heat, and simmer 15 minutes or until potato is tender. Drain in a colander over a bowl, reserving 1/4 cup cooking liquid. Combine garlic, potato mixture, 1/4 cup cooking liquid, and remaining ingredients; mash with a potato masher.

This recipe was so easy to make. Everyone loved the flavor and how creamy it was - my husband couldn't even tell they were "light" mashed potatoes. I will definitely make this recipe again.06/13/08

Great tasting and easy. I use 1/2 chicken broth and water when boiling potatoes. And sometimes substitute sour cream for plain yogurt if I don't have it on hand. Goes wonderfully with the One Pan Whiskey Pork Chops recipe on this site.05/22/08
