Ingredients

  • 3

    sprigs fresh rosemary

  • 4 lb.

    Yukon gold potatoes, peeled and cut into 1-inch pieces

  • 6

    cloves garlic, smashed and peeled

  • 3 cups

    heavy cream

  • 1 1/2 cups

    whole milk

  • 4 Tbsp.

    unsalted butter, cut up

  • Kosher salt

  • pepper

Directions

    1. Step 1Tie rosemary sprigs together with kitchen twine. Place in large sauce pot along with potatoes and garlic. Add cream and milk; bring to a boil. Add 2 teaspoons of salt, reduce heat and simmer, stirring occasionally, until potatoes are very tender and falling apart, 20 to 25 minutes.
