your oilis too hot
cook the garlic on a low heat prior to adding the potatoes, remove garlic, increase heat, added potatoes.

Another option is to make your own garlic oil. Few cloves cut in half left in a bottle of oil for a few weeks = excellence.

I chuck it out when it starts going brown.
Also, start it off in your oil from cold to stop it burning
