Peel, wash, and quarter the potatoes. Cook in a little boiling salted water until soft. Drain the cooking water, allow the potatoes to steam thoroughly, and immediately press them through a potato ricer into the still-hot pot. While the potatoes are cooking, reduce the milk, heavy cream, and 50g butter for 2 to 3 minutes. Season with salt and nutmeg. Gradually stir the reduced milk into the mashed potatoes. Only add more liquid when the rest has been completely absorbed. The mashed potatoes should no longer be boiling. Melt the remaining butter in a pan and fry the breadcrumbs until golden brown, stirring constantly. Transfer the mashed potatoes to a bowl and top with the breadcrumbed butter.
