Granny's Garlic Mashed Potatoes

 (6 medium), cut into 1-inch chunks
1 1/2 cups lowfat milk
3 tablespoons butter or margarine
4 cloves garlic, minced
salt, to taste
pepper, to taste

In large saucepan, cook potatoes in 2 inches boiling water, covered, about 10 minutes until tender; drain thoroughly, then shake potatoes over Low heat 1 to 2 minutes to dry thoroughly.

Mash potatoes with potato masher or beat with electric hand-mixer; reserve.

Place milk, butter and garlic in small saucepan; set over Medium-Low heat and simmer until heated through, beat into potatoes until thoroughly mixed and fluffy. Mix in additional milk, if necessary, to reach desired consistency. Season with salt and pepper

In my end is my beginning.
