Ingredients
1 1/2 pounds yukon gold potatoes, peeled and quartered
1 teaspoon salt
3 Tbsp butter
1 teaspoon chopped fresh sage
4 ounces goat cheese
3 Tbsp milk
Pepper
Directions
Place the potatoes and salt in a pot and fill the pot with cold water until the potatoes are covered.
Bring to a boil over high heat, then lower the heat and simmer for 15-20 minutes or until a fork easily pierces the potatoes.
Drain the water from the potatoes.
Place the butter in a small saucepan over low heat. Let the butter melt and continue to watch it as it cooks. The butter will foam for a bit and then calm down.
After a few minutes, flecks of brown will appear at the bottom of the pan. When you see this, and the melted butter takes on a nutty aroma, take it off the heat. . Pour over the potatoes. Add the goat cheese and milk and mash the potatoes with a potato masher until smooth and all ingredients are well incorporated. Salt and pepper to taste and serve immediately.
