  • 6 cloves garlic, peeled
  • 1/3 cup chopped fresh flat-leaf or curly-leaf parsley
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • Pepper, if desired
  • 1/4 cup fat-free sour cream

Steps

  • 1
    In 3-quart saucepan, place potatoes and garlic; add enough water to cover. Heat to boiling; reduce heat. Cover; simmer 15 to 20 minutes or until potatoes are tender. Drain potatoes, reserving cooking liquid.

Tips from the Betty Crocker Kitchens

  • tip 1
    Serve these potatoes in place of traditional mashed potatoes anytime. They make a great accompaniment for grilled or roasted meat and poultry.
  • tip 2
    This rustic method for preparing potatoes is good using red or white potatoes. Expect that the texture may be slightly different depending on the potatoes used.
