- 4 medium Yukon gold potatoes peeled and quartered, ~2 lbs
- 4 cloves garlic minced
- 6 tbsp unsalted butter
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 12 oz Gruyère cheese shredded
- 12 oz fresh mozzarella
Place the potatoes in a large pot and cover with cold water by 1-2 inches. Add a large pinch of salt and bring to a boil over high heat then reduce the heat so the potatoes are simmering. Cook for 15-20 minutes or until fork tender. Drain well.
Mash or push the potatoes through a ricer or sieve back into the pot.
Place the pot over low heat and stir in the garlic, butter, cream, and half of the cheese. Once the cheese melts, stir in the remaining cheese until the potatoes stretch like melted mozzarella. Taste and season with salt and freshly cracked pepper.
