Preparation

Baking Directions:

In  a 5-quart saucepan, combine the  potatoes, garlic, salt, butter and enough cold water to cover.

Bring to a boil over medium-high heat.

Reduce the heat to a simmer and cook until the potatoes are tender, about 15 to 20 minutes.

Drain in a colander and remove the garlic cloves.

Return the potatoes to the pan and using a potato masher, mash the potatoes until smooth.

For the kale: In a large skillet, heat the oil over medium-high heat.

Add the onion, salt and pepper.

Cook until translucent, about 6 minutes.

Add the garlic and cook until aromatic, about 30 seconds.

Add the kale and 1/4 cup chicken broth.

Cook, stirring occasionally, until wilted, about 10 to 12 minutes.

Add the kale mixture, mascarpone cheese, 1/2 cup chicken broth, butter, Parmesan cheese, salt and pepper to the potatoes.

Stir over low heat until smooth and warmed through.

Season with salt and pepper, to taste.

Transfer to a bowl and serve.
