Cottage Cheese Mashed Potatoes - by Jake Cohen

Ingredients:

1 pound cottage cheese (I used low-fat but any works)
2 heads roasted garlic (roasted in foil at 400°F for 60-75 min!)
2 pounds russet potatoes, peeled and cut into 1-inch pieces
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

Directions:

  • In a blender, purée the cottage cheese and roasted garlic until very smooth.

  • In a medium pot, cover the potatoes in 2 inches of cool water and season with a heavy pinch of salt, then bring to a simmer over medium-high heat. Cook until tender, 10 to 12 minutes. Drain and return the potatoes to the pot. Add the cottage cheese mixture and mash until well incorporated. Taste and adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper, then serve.
