Joël Robuchon Pommes Purée

Name: Joël Robuchon Pommes Purée
Cook time: 28 min
Total time: 28 min
Yield: 4 servings
Ingredients: 1 kg Ratte or Charlotte potatoes; 250-500 g Unsalted butter; 60-70 ml Whole milk; Salt

Joël Robuchon’s pommes purée is possibly the most luxurious mash potato in the world, made by passing hot potatoes through a food mill and gradually beating in a frankly ridiculous amount of cold butter. The full 500g of butter to 1kg of potato is bordering on absurd, so I’d suggest using 250g, although how far you take it is entirely up to you. La Ratte or Charlotte potatoes work best, but if you can’t find them, Maris Pipers or King Edwards will still be delicious. Just cook them until completely tender, pass everything through a fine sieve for that silky, almost sauce-like texture, then serve with literally anything your heart desires

Scrub the potatoes but leave the skins on. Put them into a saucepan of cold, well-salted water and bring to a simmer. Cook for around 20-25 minutes, until completely tender.
