Method
Step 1
Boil the potatoes: 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.
Step 2
Drain the water from the potatoes. Mash the potatoes with a potato masher until smooth.
Step 3
Heating butter and cream together before folding into potatoes and adding salt during the fold, which ensures even seasoning, eliminates the need to reheat the finished product and decreases the risk of over mashing.
Step 4
Fold in lemon zest, cracked hazelnuts, hazelnut oil, and marjoram. Garnish with additional crushed nuts and lemon zest. Season to taste and serve.
