Goat Cheese Mashed Potatoes

A different take on mashed potatoes.  Roasted garlic always makes mashed potatoes taste better and I am also a big fan of goat cheese.  From Food and Drink Autumn 2011.

1.5 kg Yukon Gold potatoes, peeled
1 cup milk
1 cup soft goat cheese
1/4 cup roasted garlic puree
1/2 cup butter
Salt and freshly ground pepper

1. Cut potatoes in even size chunks and place in cold salted water.  Bring to boil and boil until tender, about 15 to 20 minutes.  Drain well, return potatoes to pot and place on turned off burner to dry.
2. Mash potatoes with a potato masher or whisk.  Whisk in enough milk to make a thick puree, together with goat cheese, roasted garlic and butter.  Season well with salt and pepper.
