Step by Step guide

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 356°F. Place the heads of garlic on a baking sheet, lightly drizzle with olive oil, and bake for 20-25 minutes until the cloves are soft. Transfer to a bowl and pour the remaining olive oil over them. Leave in the refrigerator overnight.

Step 2

Peel the potatoes, cut them into small pieces, and boil in salted water until soft, about 15-20 minutes. Drain and mash or pass through a sieve until smooth.

Step 3

Add the garlic pulp, butter, garlic-infused olive oil, and milk. Season with salt and pepper. Stir in the chopped parsley, Parmesan, and red pepper flakes if desired. Mix well.
