INGREDIENTS

  • 2 lbs Yukon Gold Potatoes
  • 4 tbsp unsalted butter, softened (½ stick)
  • 2 egg yolks
  • ½ cup heavy cream
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon ground black pepper
  • ¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 2 tablespoon melted butter unsalted (for brushing)
  • smoked paprika for ganrish
  • fresh Parsley finely chopped (for garnish)

INSTRUCTIONS

  • Place the peeled and chopped potatoes in a large pot of cold, salted water.Bring to a boil over medium-high heat and cook for about 20 minutes or until fork-tender.Drain the potatoes in a colander.
  • Return the drained potatoes to the pot over low heat.Let them sit for about a minute to allow excess moisture to evaporate.Turn off the heat and mash the potatoes until smooth and lump-free.
  • Add the softened butter, egg yolks, salt, cracked pepper, nutmeg, and heavy cream.Stir everything together and continue mashing until fully combined. The mixture should have a smooth, dough-like consistency similar to choux pastry.
  • Transfer the mashed potatoes to a piping bag fitted with a large star tip.Pipe swirls of the potato mixture onto a parchment-lined baking sheet, spacing them slightly apart.
  • Gently brush the tops of the potatoes with melted butter.Bake in a preheated oven at 425°F (220°C) for 20 minutes, or until golden brown and slightly crispy on top.
  • Sprinkle the baked duchess potatoes with smoked paprika and freshly chopped parsley for a beautiful finish.Serve warm as an elegant side dish to your favorite main course.
