POMMES ALIGOT (CHEESY MASHED POTATOES) RECIPE

Steps:

• Transfer to a warmed serving dish and serve right away. Aligot is traditionally served with sausages and meats, but you can also serve it with roasted vegetables or on a bed of polenta. Leftover aligot can be refrigerated in a sealed container. To reheat, add to a saucepan with a small amount of cream. Bring cream to a simmer before stirring it in, then continue to cook, adding more cream as necessary, until aligot is heated through and consistency is correct.

ALIGOT (FRENCH MASHED POTATOES)

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.
