Categories     dinner, side dish

Time 1h10m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

3 1/2 cups corn kernels from 6 to 8 ears corn
8 to 10 ounces Yukon Gold potatoes
Salt to taste
2 small shallots, coarsely chopped
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1/2 cup dry white wine
1/2 cup light chicken stock or vegetable stock
Bouquet garni of thyme, bayleaf and tarragon
2 tablespoons mascarpone, sour cream or light sour cream

Steps:

  • Cut corn from cobs, being careful not to get too close to the cob.
  • Peel potatoes, and slice about 1 inch thick. Place in pot with corn cobs, and cover with enough water to come an inch above the potatoes. Season with salt, and bring to a simmer. Gently cook potatoes until they are tender.
  • Meanwhile sweat shallots in butter for about 3 minutes. Do not let them color. Add corn kernels, and cook slowly for 2 minutes. Add wine, stock and bouquet garni, and cook kernels until they are tender enough to purée, a matter of a few minutes.
  • When potatoes are cooked, drain them thoroughly, and discard corncobs. Put potatoes through a ricer, and set aside.
  • When corn is tender, remove bouquet garni, and purée corn in a blender.
  • Measure out 1 cup of riced potatoes (do not mash down), and fold in 2 cups corn purée with mascarpone.
  • To serve with fish, make a mound in center of plate, and top with fish.

CREAMY CORN AND POTATO MASH



Creamy Corn and Potato Mash image

Haven't made this, but it sounds good! The recipe calls for 6 fresh corn cobs, so I looked up the conversion charts, which suggests that 1 medium corn cob yields about 3/4 cup of corn. That would be 4.5 cups of frozen or canned corn, which sounds like rather a lot, to 200 gr of potatoes, which is about one large potato. Although the corn is pureed, which would make a difference. So I'm going to suggest 3 cups corn, but if you feel that this is too much, or too little, adjust accordingly. And let us know! :D Recipe comes from "Gourmet Stews And Mash".
