Why it stands out

It turns one plain potato and a handful of cheese into four little puffed side dishes that look far fancier than the effort behind them. It’s a nice change from a big bowl of mash when you’re cooking for a small table.

Good to know

  • Serve it straight away. Every soufflé starts to sink as it cools. That’s normal. Have everything else on the table before they come out of the oven.
  • Cook the potato ahead. As the intro says, a potato cooked the day before saves time, and a cold, dry potato mashes smoother than a warm, wet one.
  • Gentle with the egg whites. The puff comes from the whipped whites, so fold them in rather than stirring hard.
  • No ramekins? A muffin tin works for mini versions. Keep an eye on them, as smaller ones bake faster.
  • Leftover mashed potatoes? They’re good for crispy mashed potato balls too.
