Aligot Potatoes Ingredients

Method

Preparation Steps

  1. 1

    Prepare the Potatoes

    Peel and cut the Russet potatoes into quarters. Place them in a large pot of salted water and bring to a boil. Cook until tender, about 15-20 minutes.

  2. 2

    Mash the Potatoes

    Drain the potatoes and return them to the pot. Mash the potatoes until smooth and creamy.

  3. 3

    Add Butter and Cream

    Add the unsalted butter and heavy cream to the mashed potatoes. Mix until well incorporated and smooth.

  4. 4

    Incorporate Garlic and Cheese

    Finely chop the garlic cloves and add them to the potato mixture along with the Gruyère cheese. Stir continuously until the cheese has melted and the mixture is stretchy and creamy.

  5. 5

    Season and Serve

    Season with salt and black pepper to taste. Serve warm as a side dish.
