Garlic Mashed Potatoes

Garlic Mashed Potatoes

Ingredients:
6 cloves garlic, finely minced
1 t. sugar
4 T goat butter plus 1 stick goat butter (leave out to soften while potatoes boil)
5 lbs Russet potatoes, cut in 1/2 in cubes rinsed well in water and drained
1 3/4 c cold whole goat milk
3/4 t salt
1/2 c to 1 c grated goat or sheep cheese. Goat gouda is really good.

Melt 4 T goat butter in dutch oven over medium heat. Add minced garlic and 1 t. sugar. Cook until straw colored and sticky 3-4 minutes.

Pour in 1 3/4 cups cold whole goat milk. Add 3/4 t. salt.

Pour potatoes in and toss. Turn heat up and watch for a boil. Reduce heat to medium low and simmer potatoes for 25-30 minutes. Toss every few minutes to make sure potatoes cook evenly.

When potatoes are done, take off heat and add a stick of goat butter.
Add 1/2 c to 1 c of grated goat or sheep cheese if you'd like. Add salt and pepper to taste. Using a masher or a hand held mixer, mix until creamy. Add more goat milk if necessary.
