    How to Make Puréed Potatoes with Lemon Zest

    1. Cook Potatoes

    Place the peeled and cubed potatoes in a large pot and cover them with cold water. Bring the water to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce to a simmer. Cook the potatoes until they are fork-tender, about 15-20 minutes. Drain the potatoes thoroughly to remove excess water.

    2. Purée Potatoes

    Using a potato masher, food processor, or ricer, carefully mash the cooked potatoes until they are smooth and lump-free.

    3. Add Cream and Butter

    Gently fold in the cream and butter into the puréed potatoes. Start by adding half of the cream and butter, mixing thoroughly, and then gradually incorporate the rest until the mixture achieves a creamy consistency that holds its shape.

    4. Incorporate Lemon Zest

    Grate the zest of one lemon over the puréed potatoes, then gently stir to distribute the zest evenly throughout the purée.
