- Choose starchy potatoes like Russet or Yukon Gold for the creamiest texture.
- Roast the garlic cloves wrapped in foil with a drizzle of olive oil for about 20-25 minutes at 400°F (200°C) to bring out a mellow, sweet flavor.
- Ensure the potatoes are evenly cut into chunks to cook uniformly.
- Warm the butter and sour cream slightly before mixing them into the potatoes to keep the mashed potatoes hot and prevent cooling down the mixture.
- Use a potato masher or a ricer for the best texture; avoid using a blender or food processor, which can make the potatoes gluey.
- Season with salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste and consider adding chives or parsley for a touch of freshness and color.

The creamy texture and savory roasted garlic flavor make this dish a standout.
