Best Aligot Style Potatoes With Roasted Garlic Recipes

FRENCH MASHED POTATOES WITH CHEESE AND GARLIC (ALIGOT)

Steps:

• Place potatoes in large saucepan; add water to cover by 1 inch and add 1 tablespoon salt. Partially cover saucepan with lid and bring potatoes to boil over high heat. Reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer until potatoes are tender and just break apart when poked with a fork, 12 to 17 minutes. Drain potatoes and dry saucepan.
• Transfer potatoes to a food processor (this step is important to get the aligot texture). Add butter, garlic, and 1 1/2 teaspoons salt. Pulse until butter is melted and incorporated into potatoes, about ten 1-second pulses. Add 1 cup milk and continue to process until potatoes are smooth and creamy, about 20 seconds, scraping down sides halfway through.
• Return potato mixture to saucepan and set over medium heat. Stir in cheeses, 1 cup at a time, until incorporated. Continue to cook potatoes, stirring vigorously, until cheese is fully melted and mixture is smooth and elastic, 3 to 5 minutes. If mixture is difficult to stir and seems thick, stir in 2 tablespoons of milk at a time (up to 1/2 cup) until potatoes are loose and creamy. Season with salt and pepper. Serve immediately.
