Great article!
Mash is best with butter, but there are plenty of great soya alternatives for cream and butter out there! I think anyone who has a food mill or “mouli” can also use either one to the same effect as a potato ricer.

Great recipe Lors!
We made this tonight and it was amazing! Another great way to make mash that I will add to my repertoire.

The mascarpone is definately the secret ingredient here!

Spray labels that stick (as on your masher) with a bit of WD-40 and they come off easily

Okay so I have a hideous confession – I whisk my mashed potato with a hand blender. But I must confess if you overwhisk you get a big glutinous bowl of potatoey goo, so I’m deffo heading to TK for one of those

rach – you said it:)

Laura – o wow I didn’t realise it was that short, it’s really nice anyway and I for one will be a regular reader. I’ll add a link in my next post:)

somesaycocoa – my lo went through the same thing, she used to love mash and then went off it for about 6 months but she’s back on it again, they make fools of us don’t they:) Great to see another Irish blog and all about chocolate even better! Will add a link:) There’s a few new Irish blogs I’ve found recently!

I’ve come aross your blog and wow it’s great – well done you!. This is good timing cause last night was the first time in 5 months that my nearly-2-year-old ate her mash. She loves her pasta and something happened last night that got her eating mash again … could have been the melting butter on top

And now Kitchen Compliments are selling ricers. Woohoo!

Why has it taken me this long to realise what I was doing wrong. That is just fantastic, I’m so excited to go and find one of these “Ricer’s”. I’ll be the size of a whale but at least I’ll enjoy it!

manuel – lol:) it requires a bit of muscle alright…

potato ricer – welcome, all hail the potato ricer:)

colm – glad to hear it turned out so well, next time I’m def using the sieve. It’s so creamy isn’t it, the mascarpone is such a good addition…

Savage, just savage. I over-seasoned it ever so slightly, should have used unsalted butter.

Also, I tried it pre-sieve and post-sieve. It makes a world of difference! Restaurant quality consistency if I do say so myself!

This looks great, I’m always happy to see another recipe that uses a potato ricer.

just so lovely looking……..our ricer at work requires the use of two men to make it work……not easy in a kitchen full of idiots and wee lads…….

No problem Paul, hope they enjoy it! the mascarpone is a really nice addition.

That is some seriously good looking mash! And you’re right about us not doing potato ricers here is Ireland. I don’t own one, but I think I’m gonna have to get one
