Step-by-step Guide

Method

  1. Brush the moulds with softened butter and refrigerate 1 hour. Boil the potatoes in their skins. Separate yolks and whites.
  2. Preheat 180 ºC 30 minutes, top and bottom with fan, tray on the lowest rack.
  3. Peel, mash with a whisk (no blender; a food mill is fine) and pass through a sieve.
  4. On the heat, butter and milk. Nutmeg, pepper and the perfume (truffle or a little cheese). Off the heat, yolks.
  5. Fairly stiff whites, fold in. Fill three-quarters. 30 minutes (15–20 if individual) with the water pot in the oven. Serve at once.
Recommendations & Tricks
  • The mould should be glass or porcelain.
