    Place the full heads of garlic in a small baking dish. Roast in the oven until they are golden, very soft and the tops have begun to bubble. This will take about 45 minutes or an hour and may be done in advance. Let cool slightly.

    When the potatoes are tender, pour off the water in the pot then place the steaming hot potatoes back in the pot. Pour in the butter milk mixture.
