      Potatoes. It is best to use high-starch varieties of potatoes for mashed potatoes – they give the most airy and non-sticky mash.

      Butter. In this case, a fat content of 72% and above is suitable. It is better if the butter is at room temperature before adding it to the mash.

      Cheese. Any semi-hard cheese to your taste is suitable – Gouda, Edam, Emmental, Cheddar. Alternatively, you can use mozzarella for pizza or suluguni.

      Onion. I use regular onion for this mash. You can also take white onion – it is usually sweeter and caramelizes faster when fried.

      Garlic. In this recipe, garlic is added to the mash raw. This gives the most intense garlic aroma. If you want to make it milder, add finely chopped garlic to the onion at the very end of frying. Heat treatment makes the taste of garlic more delicate.

      Let's move on to cooking.

      Cut the potatoes into pieces and boil them until ready in salted water.

      While the potatoes are boiling, grate the cheese on a coarse grater.

      In a frying pan over medium heat, heat 2 tbsp. of vegetable oil. Add the onion and fry, stirring occasionally, until it caramelizes. It will look like this:

      Mash the cooked potatoes with butter. I do this in a kitchen machine with a whisk attachment.

      Add the cheese and onion, as well as finely grated garlic.

      Mix well. And serve.

      Enjoy your meal!
