Combine potatoes, garlic and bay leaf in a sauce pan and cover with lightly salted water. Cover and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer until potatoes are tender, about 15 minutes. Drain, discard bay leaf and return potatoes to pan over low heat. Mash and cook for a couple of minutes to dry the potatoes out a bit. Add buttermilk and season with salt and pepper.
Serve immediately.
Yield: 4-6 servings
