Ingredients
  

  • 4-5 medium Potatoes (Yukon Gold or Russet)
  • 1 medium Onion, diced
  • 2 cloves Garlic, minced
  • 4 tablespoons Butter
  • 1/4 cup Flour
  • 2 cups Milk or Cream

  1. Peel the potatoes and dice them into evenly sized chunks.
  2. Melt butter in a large pot and sauté the diced onions and minced garlic until soft and fragrant.
