Aligot

Aligot is a wholesome food based on potatoes, cheese and cream. It is a local dish in Aubrac which we had in a gite there.

I bought a list of local recipes on the way, so Bart and I had a go at making it. There is a special cheese you are supposed to use, but this can't be found here, we used a mixture of gruyere and Gouda as a replacement. 

The taste was good, but it was not quite the same consistency as the aligot made by the professionals.

Perhaps using a bit more cheese and cutting into smaller pieces would help.
