In a medium pot, combine the potatoes and enough salted cold water to cover. Bring to a boil, then lower the heat and simmer until tender, 20 to 25 minutes; drain well. Return to the pan; add the cream, season with salt and pepper and mash until fluffy.
Meanwhile, in a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the shiitakes and cook, stirring occasionally, until crisp at the edges, 5 minutes. Season with the paprika and salt and pepper to taste; set aside.
Fold the hummus into the potatoes. Stir in half of the shiitakes. Top with the remaining shiitakes.
