Gordon Ramsay Pomme Puree Recipe

This creamy and delicious pomme purée is a simple, yet luxurious side dish inspired by Gordon Ramsay. Perfect for any meal, it’s smooth, buttery, and easy to make with common ingredients like potatoes, cream, and butter. Serve it with roasted meats or vegetables for a comforting, restaurant-quality addition to your table.

Ingredients Needed:

• 900g Yukon Gold potatoes, peeled and cubed
• 180ml heavy cream
• 80ml reserved potato water
• 450g unsalted butter, plus 2 tbsp, cubed
• 1 clove garlic
• 60ml crème fraîche
• Pinch of nutmeg
• Chives, finely chopped
• Black pepper, freshly cracked
• Flaky salt

How To Make Pomme Puree Recipe?

1. Boil the Potatoes: Boil the potatoes in salted water for 10-15 minutes until fork-tender. Drain and save 80ml of the water.
2. Heat the Cream: Warm the cream with the garlic clove over low heat, then remove the garlic.
3. Mash the Potatoes: Pass the potatoes through a fine sieve or tamis into the warm cream.
4. Add Butter and Nutmeg: Mix in the butter a little at a time, then add a pinch of nutmeg.
5. Finish with Crème Fraîche: Stir in the crème fraîche, season with salt, and mix until smooth.
6. Serve: Top with chives, black pepper, and flaky salt. Serve warm.

Recipe Tips:

• Use the Right Potatoes: Use Yukon Gold potatoes for the best creamy and buttery texture. Other types might not mash as smoothly.
• Don’t Overcook the Potatoes: Boil until just fork-tender; overcooked potatoes can absorb too much water and lose flavor.
• Warm Your Cream and Butter: Always warm the cream and butter before adding them to the potatoes. Cold ingredients can ruin the texture.
• Pass-Through a Fine Sieve: For a silky-smooth purée, push the potatoes through a fine sieve or tamis instead of mashing them with a fork.
• Add Butter Gradually: Mix the butter slowly, a little at a time, to ensure it blends evenly and keeps the purée rich and creamy.

How To Store & Reheat Leftovers?

• Refrigerate: First, let the pomme purée cool to room temperature. Then, put it in an airtight container and store it in the fridge for up to 3 days.
• Reheat: Warm the pomme purée in a pot on low heat. Stir often and add a little cream or butter to keep it smooth.
