Ingredients
Preparation method
Cut the potatoes into uniform pieces, place them in a pot, and cover with water by 2 cm. Add a teaspoon of salt and cook until tender, covered.
Drain the tender potatoes and mash them with a potato masher, or thoroughly crush them in a clean saucepan.
In a small saucepan, heat the butter until hot, then remove from heat. In another pot, bring the cream to a boil, and also remove from heat.
Chef's tip
While whisking the puree, water continuously evaporates from the potatoes, making their flavor even more intense.
Don't be afraid of a larger amount of butter; this is what makes the puree truly silky.
It's best to whisk in the hot cream, as this makes the puree airier.
Mashed potatoes are also excellent the next day. Simply add a few tablespoons of milk and reheat while stirring constantly.
