Potatoes (Medium size) | 2 | Qty | ||
Butter (At Room Temperature) | 2 | Tbsp | ||
Thick Cream (At Room Temperature) | 4 | Tbsp | ||
Salt | 1 | Half Tbsp | ||
Black Pepper | 1 | Tsp | ||
Nutmeg Grated (Optional) | 1 | Tsp |
Instructions:
-
Wash and peel the potatoes. Chop roughly into 5-6 cm cubes. Make sure they are the same size as possible.
-
Put 4-5 glasses of cold water in a suitable pot. Add 1 teaspoon of salt before taking it to the stove. Add the potatoes, cook until soft, drain and put in a colander. Leave it in the colander for 1-2 minutes so that the excess water will evaporate.
-
Return the potatoes to the pot. Mash well with a masher or fork.
-
You can grate the potatoes instead of mashing them. But don't run it through the rondo. This will cause the structure of starch to deteriorate and creep.
-
In order to evaporate the cold water of the mashed potatoes and heat it, take the pot back to the stove and turn it 1-2 turns. Add 2 tablespoons of butter at room temperature and 4-5 tablespoons of cream, 1 teaspoon of salt, 1 teaspoon of black pepper and mash together for another 2-3 minutes until homogenized.
-
Take the puree, which you have turned for about 10-15 seconds without holding the bottom, from the fire and serve it hot without waiting.
-
If you are going to serve the puree later, put it in a glass bowl. Cover it with cling film by pressing it airtight with your hand and store it in the refrigerator. At the time of serving, you can add 2-3 spoons of milk and mix it and heat it on the stove. Enjoy your meal!
