Lebanese Mashed Potatoes

Boil potatoes until tender.

Meanwhile, in a small bowl, mash chopped garlic with salt into a paste; add oil and lemon juice and set aside.

When potatoes are tender, remove them from cooking water and reserve it. Place potatoes in a deep bowl and mash them while they are warm.

Mix in garlic sauce and a little water from cooking the potatoes. Crush dried mint between your palms over the mixture and mix thoroughly. Taste and adjust seasoning. Served warm or cold.
