Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pounds Russet potatoes
- 4 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 0.5 cup Heavy cream
- 2 large Egg yolks
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.25 teaspoon Ground black pepper
- 0.125 teaspoon Nutmeg
- 2 tablespoons Fresh chives
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Peel and cut the russet potatoes into evenly sized chunks.
Place the potato chunks in a large pot, cover them with cold water, and bring to a boil over high heat.
Reduce the heat to medium and simmer until the potatoes are tender, about 15-20 minutes.
Drain the potatoes well and return them to the pot. Allow the excess moisture to evaporate by placing the pot over low heat for 1-2 minutes.
Mash the potatoes using a potato ricer or masher until smooth.
Stir in the unsalted butter and heavy cream until fully incorporated and smooth.
Mix in the egg yolks, garlic powder, ground black pepper, and nutmeg until combined.
Chop the fresh chives finely and fold them into the mixture.
Transfer the potato mixture to a large piping bag fitted with a large star tip.
Pipe the potatoes into small mounds onto the prepared baking sheet, spaced a few inches apart.
Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown and crispy.
Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving.
