Place the potatoes in a large stockpot with and fill with
water to cover. Salt well and bring to a boil. Cook potatoes for 15 to 20
minutes or until fork-tender.
Heat ½ stick of butter over medium heat in a large pan and
saute the garlic and kale until tender, about 3 to 5 minutes to set aside.
Drain the potatoes and return to pot. Mash with a potato
masher and then add the cream gradually, mixing to incorporate. Season with
salt and pepper to taste. Stir in the kale and then the goat cheese, adjust the
seasoning and serve.
