How to Make Cheesy Mashed Potatoes (Aligot) | Jeffrey Eisner

Peel and quarter the potatoes.

Place the quartered potatoes in the Instant Pot.

Add about 1 cup of liquid to the pot.

Pressure cook the potatoes for 8 minutes.

Strain the potatoes after cooking.

Return the potatoes to the pot to remove excess moisture.

Add 1 stick of butter to the potatoes, cutting it into pats for quicker dispersion.

Add 1 cup of heavy cream to the potatoes.

Mash the potatoes until smooth.

Gradually add 6 cups of cheese in batches, mixing as you go.

Switch from a masher to a mixer as the mixture becomes smoother.

Continue to mix until the potatoes become stretchy like taffy.
