Mustard Mash

By HeatherS

Ingredients

• 1.2 kg (2lb 12oz) potatoes, peeled
• 100 g (3 1/2oz) butter
• 50 ml (2fl oz) full-fat milk
• 3 tbsp double cream
• 3 tbsp grain mustard

Preparation

Step 1

Cook the potatoes in boiling, lightly salted water until tender, then drain. Put back into the pan and cover with a clean tea towel and a lid. Put back on a very low heat for a couple of minutes to dry out a bit. Mash with the butter and some seasoning. Push the mixture through the fine mesh of a mouli-légumes or a potato ricer. Heat the milk and cream then gradually beat this into the potatoes along with the mustard, mixing well with a wooden spoon. Taste – you may want to add a little more mustard, salt, milk or butter.
