It is also delicious served with grilled meat or fish.
- 1 kg Potatoes (Agria and King Edwards)
- 6-8 cloves of garlic wrapped in foil and baked in the oven til soft and sweet
- 3 egg yolks
- 200ml of Leafyridge Extra Virgin Olive Oil
- Juice of 2 lemons
- Salt and Pepper
Peel and bring the potatoes to boil. When cooked drain and pass through a mouli (or sieve or potato ricer) and then cool. When at room temperature add yolks, crushed garlic and lemon juice. Preferably mix by hand as a machine will overwork the potatoes and you will end up with garlic glue. Slowly stir in your Leafyridge Extra Virgin Olive Oil until it reaches the correct consistency.
