Truffled Fingerling Smashed Potatoes
TIME/SERVINGS
Total Time: 1 hr
Active Time: 10 mins
Makes: 10 to 12 servings
INGREDIENTS
5 pounds fingerling potatoes
8 tablespoons unsalted butter (1 stick)
1 cup heavy cream
1/4 cup white truffle oil
4 teaspoons kosher saltĀ
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
INSTRUCTIONS
- Place potatoes in a large pot, add water to cover the potatoes by 2 inches, salt well (the water should taste like seawater), and bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce heat to low and simmer potatoes until fork tender, about 15 to 20 minutes.
- Drain potatoes, return to the pot along with butter, and cook over low heat until butter is melted. Using a hand-held potato masher, smash potatoes until butter is incorporated, leaving some lumps. Add cream, truffle oil, salt, and pepper and fold together. Taste and adjust seasoning as desired.
