tip: instead of tome fraîche de l'aubrac, you can use cantal, salers or any other fresh young cheese that melts well.
Peel and crush the garlic cloves. Peel the potatoes and cut them into chunks. Put them in a pan with water and salt and bring them to a boil.
Boil the potatoes for about 15 minutes. The exact time depends on the size of the potatoes.
Grate the cheese and weigh the crème fraîche, as it is important that you are ready to finish the purée as quickly as possible.
Drain the potatoes and press them through a fine sieve with a large spoon. Immediately stir in the cheese and crème fraîche. You can pull ribbons from a good aligot.
Season with salt and pepper and serve immediately. Enjoy your meal!
