Aligot

Directions

1. Peel the potatoes, cut them into large pieces, and cook them in boiling, salted water with the peeled onions for about twenty minutes, or until they are tender. ⏱ ≈ 10 min
2. In the meantime, you can prepare the cheese slices. ≈ 3 min
3. Gently drain the potatoes and mash them with a potato masher or in a food processor, adding a little of the cooking water if needed. ≈ 2 min
4. Add the cream and mix well. ≈ 4 min
5. Once the mixture is homogeneous and still warm, quickly add the cheese and stir vigorously with a spoon or wooden spatula. ≈ 4 min
6. The texture should be smooth. If you tilt the spoon parallel to the table, a thin layer of puree should run off (see the photo). ≈ 3 min
7. Adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper, and, if desired, add finely chopped onion for extra flavor. ≈ 2 min
8. It is often served in a hollow dish, as an appetizer or as a main course, accompanied by roasted meats and sausages, and sometimes with a small green salad. ≈ 2 min
