Potato Mixture

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Cook the Potatoes

    Peel and cube the potatoes. 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. Add butter, heavy cream, salt, black pepper, and nutmeg. Mash until smooth.

  3. 3

    Add Egg Yolks and Cheese

    Stir in the egg yolks and Parmesan cheese until well combined.

  4. 4

    Pipe the Mixture

    Transfer the potato mixture to a piping bag fitted with a large star tip. Pipe the mixture into small mounds on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

  5. 5

    Bake

    Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Bake the piped potato mounds for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown.
