Truffle Pomme Purée Recipe

Preparation

1. 1

   Peel and Chop Potatoes

   Peel the russet potatoes and cut them into evenly sized chunks (about 1-2 inches). This helps them cook evenly.

2. 2

   Boil Potatoes

   Place the chopped potatoes in a large pot and cover with cold water. Add a pinch of salt and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Cook until potatoes are fork-tender, about 15-20 minutes.

3. 3

   Drain and Dry

   Once the potatoes are cooked, drain them in a colander and let them sit for a few minutes to allow excess moisture to escape.

4. 4

   Mashing

   Transfer the drained potatoes back to the pot. Using a potato masher or ricer, mash the potatoes until smooth and creamy.

5. 5

   Incorporate Butter and Cream

   Add the butter and heavy cream to the mashed potatoes. Stir until the butter is melted and the mixture is creamy and well combined.

6. 6

   Seasoning

   Add salt and white pepper to taste. Drizzle in the truffle oil, and mix gently to combine. Adjust seasoning if necessary.
