Roasted Garlic Potatoes
- Roast 1 whole head garlic:
- First, trim the bottom of any remaining roots;
- Next, cut the top off – so that you can see the tops of the garlic cloves. This will make it easier to remove the garlic from its skins once cooked;
- Drizzle 1-2 tsp of olive oil over the cloves, allowing the oil to get into the cloves;
- Wrap in aluminum foil and toast in the oven at 400 F for 40-50 minutes until soft and caramelized;
- Allow to cool completely. To remove from the paper skins squeeze from the bottom upward. The garlic will be soft and caramelized;
- Using a fork, blend roasted garlic into 6 ounces of softened creamed cheese;
- While garlic is roasting, thinly slice 3 pounds of scrubbed potatoes (roughly, 4 large or 6 medium or 8-10 small potatoes);
- Arrange 1/3 of the potatoes in a large pie dish (or rectangular baking dish);
- Sprinkle potatoes with salt and pepper and 1/3 of the garlic cheese mixture;
- Arrange 1/3 of the potatoes over the first layer;
- Sprinkle potatoes with salt and pepper and 1/3 of the garlic cheese mixture;
- Use the remaining 1/3 potatoes and garlic cheese for the top layer;
- Pour 2 cups of warm milk over the potatoes;
- Cover tightly with foil, place dish on baking sheet and bake at 350 degrees for 45 minutes;
- Remove foil and bake for another 15 – 30 minutes, until the top is browned;
- Garnish with freshly grated Parmesan cheese and enjoy!
- Ingredients list: Roasted Garlic, Cream Cheese, Salt & Pepper, Potatoes, Milk.
- Variation: For a vegan version of these Roasted Garlic Potatoes, blend roasted garlic with 1/2 onion, finely diced, and sprinkle flour along with the salt and pepper on each layer, pour warm non-dairy milk over the potatoes. Garnish with finely chopped fresh herbs.
- Note: Roast multiple heads of garlic for easy meals later in the week (roasted garlic will keep in the refrigerator for a full week). Stored garlic makes whipping up a batch of Roasted Garlic Dip a breeze!
