  • 1 cup plus 2 tablespoons heavy cream
  • ¼ pound unsalted butter
  • 2 teaspoons kosher salt
  • Freshly ground black pepper

Directions

1. Cook potatoes, uncovered, at 100% for 13 to 15 minutes, until tender. Remove from oven and peel.

2. Pass potatoes through a ricer or the medium disc of a food mill. Add remaining ingredients and mix well. Serve hot.

Notes

To serve 8. Double all ingredients. Cook potatoes at 100% for 25 minutes.
