INGREDIENTS

  • 4 lb (1.8 kg) russet potatoes, peeled or unpeeled, cubed
  • 3 large garlic cloves, peeled and smashed
  • 1/3 cup (75 ml) 35% cream
  • 1/3 cup (75 ml) milk
  • ½ cup (125 ml) mixed fresh herbs, chopped (such as chives, rosemary, thyme, sage)
  • 6 tbsp (90 ml) salted butter

INSTRUCTIONS

Place the potatoes and garlic in a large pot and cover with cold water. Season with salt and bring to a boil. Simmer until the potatoes are very tender when pierced with a fork, about 15 to 20 minutes. Drain.

In the same pot, heat the cream, milk and half of the herbs until steaming. Season with salt and pepper. Remove from the heat and let sit for 10 minutes.

Meanwhile, heat the butter over medium heat in a 26 cm Iron Handle Skillet until foamy. Continue to cook the butter, swirling the pan often, until golden and takes on a nutty aroma (be careful not to burn the butter). Transfer immediately to a bowl and set aside.

Add the cooked potatoes and garlic to the pot of warm cream. Add half of the browned butter. Using a potato masher or an electric mixer, purée the potatoes to the desired consistency. Do not overwork the potatoes or they will become gluey. Season to taste with salt and pepper.

Return half of the remaining brown butter to the Skillet and heat over medium heat. Add the mashed potatoes, packing them down firmly with the back of a spoon. Let sit without stirring for 4 minutes or until golden. Stir the potatoes and pack them down again, leaving them to brown up for another 4 minutes.

Fluff the potatoes with a fork. Garnish with the remaining herbs and drizzle with the remaining brown butter. Serve directly in the Skillet.
