Peel and chop the potatoes into even pieces.

Place the potatoes in a pot and cover with water.

Add salt to the water and bring to a boil.

While the potatoes are boiling, add butter to another pot.

Add heavy cream and four cloves of smashed garlic to the pot with butter.

Set the flame to medium-low and let the mixture melt together.

Once melted, lower the flame to the lowest setting and let it simmer for around 30 seconds.

Drain the water from the boiled potatoes.

Use a potato masher to mash the potatoes until creamy and soft.

Remove the chunks of garlic from the butter and cream mixture.

Turn the flame to medium-low and add the garlic butter mixture to the mashed potatoes gradually, mixing as you go.

Once fully mixed, lower the flame as low as possible and let it sit for 30 seconds.

Give it one more mix and turn off the flames before serving.
