  • 750 grams Sebago potatoes, peeled, coarsely chopped
  • 2 Tbsp butter
  • pinch of white pepper
  • Melted butter, extra for greasing
  • 2 egg yolks
  • 1 Tbsp water
  • salt to season

Instructions
 

  • Place potato in a saucepan. Cover with cold water. Bring to the boil over high heat. Cook for 10 minutes or until very tender.
  • Drain and return to the pan. Cook over thigh heat, shaking the pan, for 1 minute or until the moisture has evaporated.
  • Use a potato masher to mash the potato until smooth. Use the back of a spoon to press the potato through a fine sieve into a bowl. Stir in the butter and egg yolks. Season with salt and white pepper.
  • Preheat oven to 200C. Brush a baking tray with extra butter to lightly grease. Line with baking paper.
  • Place potato in a piping bag fitted with a 1.5cm fluted nozzle. Pipe 16 rosettes onto the prepared tray.
