Baked Marbled Mashed Potatoes image

Mashed potatoes and mashed sweet potatoes marbled together in a savory hot dish topped with a crunchy bread crumb topping. I was first served this dish at a holiday dinner and begged the hostess for the recipe. It is a rich and delicious way to serve two favorite potatoes in a single dish. It tastes wonderful and presents well. Your guests will rave over this one.

Time 1h50m

Yield 10

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 ½ pounds medium baking potatoes, peeled and quartered
3 large sweet potatoes, peeled and quartered
¼ cup salted butter
4 large shallots, minced
1 cup heavy cream
1 cup sour cream
½ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon ground white pepper, or to taste
⅛ teaspoon ground nutmeg
6 tablespoons salted butter, melted
½ cup dry bread crumbs
¼ cup minced fresh parsley

Steps:

  • Place white potatoes in a large pot and cover with salted water. Place sweet potatoes in a second pot and cover with salted water. Bring both pots to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer, uncovered, until tender, about 25 minutes. Drain and set aside to cool in 2 separate bowls.
  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • While potatoes are cooling, melt butter in a small pan over medium heat. Add shallots and cook until tender, about 5 minutes. Remove from the heat.
  • Mash potatoes with a potato masher or ricer.
  • Beat cream in a chilled glass or metal bowl with an electric mixer until soft peaks form. Whisk sour cream into whipped cream.
  • Stir 1/2 of the shallot mixture into each bowl then gently fold in. Gently fold 1/2 of the cream mixture into each bowl. Divide salt, pepper, and nutmeg evenly between the two bowls. Taste and adjust seasoning.
  • Place 1/2 of the sweet potato mixture in a 2-quart baking dish. Layer 1/2 of the white potato mixture on top. Repeat layers once more, then swirl with a spatula to create a marbled effect.
  • Mix melted butter, bread crumbs, and parsley for topping together. Sprinkle topping mixture over potatoes.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until topping is golden brown and potatoes are hot all the way through, 30 to 35 minutes.

These potatoes were a bit too firm for my taste. I think I would have cooked them for a few minutes longer.

I wasn't a big fan of the marble effect. I think I would have preferred to just mash the potatoes together.

These potatoes were a bit too dry for my taste. I might add some extra butter or milk next time.
