Pomme Aligot Recipe

Preparation Steps

1. 1

   Prepare the Potatoes

   Peel and cut the Yukon Gold potatoes into equal-sized chunks. Place them in a large pot and cover with cold water. Add a pinch of salt and bring to a boil.

2. 2

   Cook the Potatoes

   Once boiling, reduce the heat to medium and simmer for about 15-20 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender and easily pierced with a fork.

3. 3

   Drain and Mash

   Drain the potatoes and return them to the pot. Mash the potatoes using a potato masher or a ricer until smooth.

4. 4

   Add Cream and Butter

   In a saucepan, heat the heavy cream and butter until the butter is melted. Gradually add this mixture to the mashed potatoes, stirring until well combined and creamy.

5. 5

   Incorporate Gruyère

   Add the grated Gruyère cheese to the potato mixture, stirring continuously until the cheese is fully melted and the mixture is smooth and stretchy.

6. 6

   Season and Serve

   Season with salt and black pepper to taste. Serve hot as a side dish, enjoying the creamy, cheesy texture.
