Ingredients
  

Ingredients:

  • 2 russet potatoes peeled and diced into 1 inch cubes
  • 8 cloves garlic minced
  • juice from 1 lemon
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt plus more to taste
  • 3/4 - 1 cup olive oil

Instructions
 

  • Place potatoes in a pot with enough water to just cover them. Boil until fork tender. Drain. Allow to cool.
  • Run cooled potatoes through a food mill or ricer.
  • In a food processor combine potatoes, garlic, lemon juice and 1/4 teaspoon of salt. Turn food processor on and process until smooth.
  • With food processor running, slowly drizzle in 3/4 cup of olive oil in a steady stream until mixture emulsifies. Check for consistency. If you would like a little creamier, turn on food processor and slowly drizzle in remaining 1/4 cup of olive oil.
  • Season to taste with salt.
  • Serve with veggies or pita bread.

Notes

Be sure to check back later this week, I am going to show you one heck of a fish dish that uses this recipe. It was seriously one of the best fish dishes I've had in a long time and its easy to boot.
