Nora Ephron’s Mashed Potatoes from Heartburn When I think of heartburn, I don’t normally think of enticing recipes, but Ephron’s 1983 novel is the exception. What I love most about Ephron’s mashed potatoes recipe is that she doesn’t tell you where to draw the line with the heavy cream and butter. (I’m a big fan of the kamikaze, taste-as-you-go style.) For Turkey Day purposes, you might want to multiply this serving by 10: For mashed potatoes: Put 1 large (or 2 small) potatoes in a large pot of salted water and bring to a boil. Lower the heat and simmer for at least 20 minutes, until tender. Drain and place the potatoes back in the pot and shake over low heat to eliminate excess moisture. Peel. Put through a potato ricer and immediately add 1 tablespoon heavy cream and as much melted butter and salt and pepper as you feel like. Eat immediately. Serves one.
