Porcini mushroom puree

Ingredients for 2 servings:

• 6 large potatoes
• ½ cup milk
• e.g. cream
• Salt
• e.g. butter
• 20 g porcini mushrooms, dried
• 2 shallots

Instructions

Working time approx. 30 minutes; Cooking/baking time approx. 20 minutes; Total time approx. 50 minutes

Peel the potatoes, cut into chunks, and boil for about 20 minutes. Soak the porcini mushrooms in water and let them swell. After 10 minutes, remove the mushrooms from the water, rinse them with cold water, drain them, and chop them finely. Chop the shallots finely and sauté them with the mushrooms in butter. Drain the potatoes. Gently warm some milk (we do this in the microwave). Mash the potatoes. Add cream, milk, and butter as needed, depending on how thick you want the mash to be, and mix. Add salt to taste. Add the mushrooms and shallots to the mashed potatoes and stir in.
