Warm the cream & butter
Gently heat 100 ml cream and 100 g butter in a saucepan (do not boil).

Puree
Press the potatoes through a ricer or mash them finely with a potato masher. (Only use a mixer briefly, otherwise they’ll turn sticky.)

Tip:
Before serving, stir in 1–2 teaspoons of cold butter (“mount”) for extra shine. To keep warm, place in a water bath with a lid.
