Time 50m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 pounds Yukon gold potatoes, peeled and cut into large chunks
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
6 tablespoons unsalted butter
3/4 cup heavy cream, plus more as needed
1/2 cup sour cream
8 ounces shredded Swiss cheese
Gravy, recipe follows
3 tablespoons bacon fat or meatloaf pan drippings
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon chopped fresh thyme
1 1/2 cups low-sodium beef stock
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Put the potatoes in a pot with salted water to cover. Bring to a simmer over medium heat and cook until tender all the way through, about 10 minutes. Drain.
  • Combine the butter, heavy cream and 1 1/2 teaspoons salt in the same pot you cooked the potatoes in and melt over low heat. Use a masher to puree the potatoes right back into the pot while still hot. Stir in the sour cream. Add large handfuls of cheese and stir and fold the potatoes over themselves until the cheese melts, then add another handful. If it gets too thick and hard to stir before you've added all the cheese, add a few tablespoons of additional cream. Season with salt and pepper. Serve and add the Gravy on top.
  • Heat the drippings in a small saucepan (or the meatloaf pan) over medium heat. Whisk in the flour until smooth. Cook and stir until lightly toasted, 1 to 2 minutes. Stir in the thyme. Whisk in the beef stock until smooth. Bring to a simmer over medium heat and stir in the Worcestershire. Simmer until thickened, 4 to 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
