Put butter, cream and potatoes in a vacuum bag, seal.

Place the bag in a sous vide bath for 30 minutes at a temperature of 90 degrees (if your slices or slices are very thin, you will need 25 minutes).
-
Place the prepared potato and butter mixture on a sieve set on a deep plate and carefully rub the potatoes through it.
