Peel the potatoes if you prefer, then cut them into equal chunks.
Bring a large pot of salted water to the boil. Add the potatoes and garlic, then reduce the heat to medium and simmer with the lid slightly ajar until tender, 20 to 25 minutes. Drain the potatoes and return them to the pot. Toss the potatoes and garlic over high heat until any moisture has evaporated, about 2 minutes.
In a small saucepan, warm the milk with the butter over medium heat until the butter has melted; set aside.
Using a potato ricer, press the potatoes and garlic into a large bowl. Pour in the milk mixture and stir to combine. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
If making ahead, the mash can be prepared up to 2 hours in advance. Transfer to a microwave-safe bowl and let stand at room temperature. Reheat in the microwave in 1-minute intervals, stirring occasionally, until hot throughout, about 4 minutes.
