Ingredients

Method

Scrub potatoes; cut into 2-inch (5 cm) cubes. In large saucepan of boiling salted water, cover and cook potatoes until tender, about 15 minutes. Drain and return to pot.

Meanwhile, in small skillet, melt 1 tbsp (15 mL) of the butter over medium heat; fry leeks, a pinch each of the salt and pepper and thyme until tender, about 5 minutes.

Add buttermilk and remaining butter, salt and pepper to potatoes; smash with potato masher until smooth with a few large pieces remaining. Stir in leek mixture.
