RICH MASHED POTATOES
Ingredients
500g potatoes
75ml milk
50g butter
45ml double cream or crème fraiche
1 whole egg or 2 egg yolks
Serves: 4
Method
Peel and cut the potatoes into even sized pieces.
Cook in boiling salted water until soft.
Drain off the water, mash the potatoes, with a potato ricer.
If you do not have a ricer then the potatoes can be sliced thinly and cooked for 10 mins.
Once drained the slices will break up once the other ingredients are added.
Beat in milk, butter, cream and egg. Season with salt and pepper.
Serve at once.
