Ingredients
- 1 batch homemade KFC Gravy
- 1.5kg/ 3lb Sebago (Aus dirt brushed), Russet (US), Maris Piper (UK) or other starchy potatoes
- 1 tbsp salt (for water)
- 75g (5 tbsp) unsalted butter, cubed
- 1/2 cup (125ml) cream (heavy / thickened)
- 3/4 cup (185ml) milk, full fat
- freshly ground black pepper
- salt to taste
Instructions
- Peel and cut potatoes into 3cm / 1.25" cubes.
- Place in a pot, add 1 tbsp salt and water so it's 5cm / 2" above potatoes.
- Bring water to a boil, then boil for 15 minutes until potatoes are very soft and starting to fall apart.
- Drain, leave in colander to steam dry for 3 minutes.
- Meanwhile, melt butter in a saucepan over medium high heat. Add cream and milk, heat until just before simmer - do not let it boil. Remove from stove.
- Pass potato through a potato ricer (Note 1) or use a masher with holes. Do not use beater - will make it dense.
- Add hot milk mixture, 1/2 tsp salt and 1/4 tsp pepper. GENTLY stir until mixed through.
- Taste for salt and pepper, add more if needed.
- Transfer into serving bowl. Pour over Gravy and serve immediately with anything and everything!
- For a KFC at home experience, serve with homemade Fried Chicken (it's better than KFC!)
Notes
- Potato ricer - to achieve a really soft, near lump-free creamy texture, you need a potato ricer. A masher won't be quite as soft, but if you use one with holes in it, it's the nearest you'll get.
- Do not use a beater - it might make it more lump free but it will be dense and thick, rather than soft and creamy like KFC potato.
