Preparation

Step 1
Peel the potatoes and cut them crosswise into ¾-inch cubes. Put the pieces in a saucepan and add water to cover. Add salt and the garlic.
Step 2
Bring to a boil and simmer 15 minutes or until the potatoes are tender. Do not overcook. Drain the potatoes and garlic and put them through a food mill or potato masher, then back in the saucepan.
Step 3
Meanwhile, heat the milk and add the butter to the milk. Blend well with a wooden spatula. Add the milk and butter mixture, a little at a time, to the potato mixture. Add the parsley, pepper, nutmeg and salt. Blend well. Keep warm until ready to serve.
