Mashed potato with double cream and butter

Preparation

Baking Directions:

Preheat a moderate oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.

Score the skins of the potatoes with a sharp knife.

Lay them in a baking tray sprinkled with the rock salt and bake for 90 minutes, or until soft.

While still hot, hold them in a tea towel and scoop the potato out of the skin.

Press through a fine sieve or potato ricer.

Place mashed potato into a small saucepan and stir with a wooden spoon.

Pour in cream and butter; adjust seasoning with salt and pepper and nutmeg.

Serve with a small knob of butter and some double cream poured over the top.
