1
Peel the bulb of garlic, which should equal around 10 cloves.
-
2
I prefer to mash it finely with a mortal and pestle (the old-fashioned way) but feel free to use a food processor.
-
3
Combine the salt and garlic cloves in whatever manner you choose, and grind them up well.
-
4
Then prepare the boxed mashed potatoes as directed for the smallest serving possible.
-
5
(Youll need about 1/2 cup.
-
6
2-3 servings on a box of mashed potatoes is about 1 cup.
-
7
So feel free to take out a spoon and eat the other half of the mashed potatoes.)
-
8
Let the mashed potatoes cool.
-
9
Go back to the garlic, and add the mayonnaise, the lemon juice and about half of the oil (about 1/4 of a cup).
-
10
Blend together in processor or blender.
-
11
Then add about 1/4 cup of the mashed potatoes and half of the oil you have left (about 1/8 of a cup).
-
12
Blend more.
-
13
(You may need to stick a spoon down in there to ensure that it mixes thoroughly).
-
14
Now add the remainder of your mashed potatoes and oil.
-
15
Give it a good final blend.
-
16
You may need to add more oil or potatoes, depending on whether you want it thicker or thinner.
-
17
Serve with pita bread, pita chips, chicken kabobs, or my Kafta (Kofta) recipe that Ive posted here in my recipe box.
