About Aligot

Aligot is a creamy, stretchy dish originating from the Aubrac region of southern France, celebrated in French cuisine for its rich texture and comforting flavor. It combines mashed potatoes with melted cheese, typically Tomme d’Auvergne or similar varieties, and incorporates butter, cream, and garlic for added richness. This indulgent dish is traditionally served alongside meats, making it a hearty complement to a meal. While Aligot is beloved for its velvety consistency and satisfying taste, it is a calorie-dense food, high in fats and carbohydrates due to its combination of cream, butter, and cheese. As a source of protein from cheese and nutrients like potassium in potatoes, Aligot offers limited nutritional benefits but is best enjoyed in moderation as an occasional treat or celebratory meal. Its irresistible texture and robust flavor make it a treasured comfort food within French culinary tradition.
