Ingredients
- 12 ounces Yukon Gold potatoes, peeled and cubed
- 2 tablespoons butter, divided
- 1 clove garlic, minced
- ΒΌ cup milk
- 2 tablespoons crumbled feta cheese
- salt and ground black pepper to taste
Instructions
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add potatoes, reduce heat, and simmer until tender, 15 to 20 minutes. Drain in a colander.
- Add 1 tablespoon butter to the same pot over medium-low heat. Add garlic and saute until golden, 1 to 2 minutes. Pour in milk and return potatoes to the pot. Add feta cheese and remaining butter.

- For optimal taste, use salt sparingly as the feta cheese is already salty.
