Steps:

• Peel and halve 3 medium russet potatoes. Put in a microwave-safe bowl, cover with plastic wrap and make a small hole in the plastic with a knife. Microwave until tender, 12 to 15 minutes; let sit, covered, 2 minutes. Mash the potatoes with 1 to 1 1/4 cups hot milk, and salt to taste. Melt 3 tablespoons butter in a small skillet over medium heat and cook until golden brown; add 8 to 10 sage leaves and cook 30 more seconds. Pour over the potatoes.

• In a small saucepan simmer garlic in oil until golden. Stir in sage and remove pan from heat. Let mixture stand 15 minutes and drain oil through a fine sieve into a small bowl, discarding solids.
• Make fried sage leaves:
• In a small skillet heat 1/8 inch oil over moderately high heat until hot but not smoking and fry sage leaves, 1 at a time, about 3 seconds, until crisp, transferring with a slotted spoon to paper towels to drain. Sprinkle sage leaves with coarse salt.
• Peel potatoes and quarter. In a large saucepan cover potatoes by 1 inch with salted cold water and simmer until tender, about 20 minutes. Reserve about 1/3 cup cooking liquid and drain potatoes.
• Preheat oven to 350°F.
• While potatoes are still warm force through a ricer or medium disk of a food mill into a bowl and beat in yogurt, butter, seasoned oil, enough reserved liquid to reach desired consistency, and salt and pepper to taste. Transfer to an ovenproof serving dish. Mashed potatoes may be made 1 day ahead and chilled, covered.

• Remove kernels from cobs and set aside (there should be about 2 or 3 cups of corn).
• Cook potatoes and garlic in boiling salted water until tender.
• Drain potatoes, reserving about a half a cup of liquid.
• Saute corn kernels in 1 tablespoon of butter, season with salt and pepper and cook 6-8 minutes.
• Set aside.
• Melt the remaining butter until it becomes brown lightly and begins to smell nutty.
• Remove the pan from the heat so it does not burn; there will be some brown whey in the bottom of the pan.

• Season potatoes with salt and pepper to taste.
• Grease the bottom of a 9x13 pan.
• Pour well drained corn into the pan (make sure the corn is REALLY well drained there will be too much liquid. I press on the corn with a clean kitchen towel or paper towels to sop up the extra liquid).
