Aligot Mashed Potatoes With Cheese Recipes

Steps:

• In a large pot over medium-high heat, add the potatoes, garlic, and cover with cold water. Add a big pinch of salt.
• Bring to a boil, reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer until the potatoes are fork-tender, about 20 minutes.
• Drain potatoes and garlic in a colander and press them through the holes of the colander with a metal spoon back into the pot. Alternatively, use a potato ricer.
• Add the butter and one clove of garlic to the potatoes and stir over medium-low heat with a rubber spatula until melted and smooth.
• Pour in the heavy cream and stir again until combined.
• Gradually add in the cheese, stirring between each addition, until completely melted.
• Continue stirring the potatoes until smooth, thick, and elastic.
• Begin to stretch the potatoes upwards with the spatula. If the mixture is breaking, add in more cheese. If the mixture is too thick add in more cream.
• Serve immediately as a side with roasted veggies or a meat of choice, or alone with fresh chopped garlic!
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Place potatoes into a large pot and cover with salted water; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until tender, about 20 minutes.
• Meanwhile heat milk and cream in a saucepan until warmed.
• Drain potatoes and press through a potato ricer or mash. Season with nutmeg and white pepper. Pour in warm milk and cream. Add grated cheese, creme fraiche, butter, and garlic; mix until well combined and creamy. Season with salt to taste.

Steps:

• Place potatoes in large saucepan; add water to cover by 1 inch and add 1 tablespoon salt. Partially cover saucepan with lid and bring potatoes to boil over high heat. Reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer until potatoes are tender and just break apart when poked with a fork, 12 to 17 minutes. Drain potatoes and dry saucepan.
• Transfer potatoes to a food processor (this step is important to get the aligot texture). Add butter, garlic, and 1 1/2 teaspoons salt. Pulse until butter is melted and incorporated into potatoes, about ten 1-second pulses. Add 1 cup milk and continue to process until potatoes are smooth and creamy, about 20 seconds, scraping down sides halfway through.
• Return potato mixture to saucepan and set over medium heat. Stir in cheeses, 1 cup at a time, until incorporated. Continue to cook potatoes, stirring vigorously, until cheese is fully melted and mixture is smooth and elastic, 3 to 5 minutes. If mixture is difficult to stir and seems thick, stir in 2 tablespoons of milk at a time (up to 1/2 cup) until potatoes are loose and creamy. Season with salt and pepper. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Place potatoes into a large pot and cover with salted water; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until tender, about 20 minutes. Drain and mash.
• Meanwhile, melt butter in a skillet over low heat and cook garlic until lightly browned, 2 to 3 minutes. Add garlic and butter to the mashed potatoes. Stir in until well combined.
• Add creme fraiche and mix until well combined. Mashed potatoes should still be hot. If mashed potatoes have gotten too cold, quickly heat them over low heat on the stove. Mix in cheese until melted and season with salt and pepper.
