Pommes Aligot Mashed Potatoes

Ingredients

  • 3.5 lbs (1.6kg) small yukon gold potatoes
  • 1 lb (450g) cold unsalted butter, cut into ½ inch cubes
  • ¼ cup (60ml) whole milk 
  • 3 cups (720g) shredded gruyere
  • Kosher salt to taste 

Directions

  1. Place your whole unpeeled potatoes into boiling water and boil for 25-30 minutes or until just cooked through. 
  2. Using a paring knife, peel the skins off of your potatoes while still hot. Immediately run your hot potatoes through a food mill or potato ricer. Place into a medium sized pot with plenty of stirring room and set over medium heat. 
  3. Using a heat-proof spatula, gently stir your potatoes constantly, adding a small handful of butter. Allow the butter to melt and emulsify into your potatoes. Once combined, add more butter, and repeat that process with the rest of the butter.
  4. Whisk in your whole milk until homogenous, season to taste with kosher salt.
  5. Fold the cheese into the potatoes using a spatula, adding a little bit at a time, ensuring the cheese is fully melted before adding more.
