Method
Peel and cut the potato into dices. In a pot, add the potatoes and enough water to immerse them. Season with salt and bring to a boil. Boil until the potatoes can be pierced easily with a knife.
Strain the potatoes. You can mash them with a potato masher, but for even creamier mashed potatoes pass them through a strainer while they are still warm.
In a pan, simmer the butter along with garlic and cream on a low flame. Add this to the potatoes and fold it in using a spatula.
Season with salt and pepper. Add warm milk a little at a time until it reaches the desired consistency.
