Time 1h15m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

3 pounds large Yukon gold potatoes, peeled and cut in 3/4-inch chunks
5 large garlic cloves
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
7 to 8 ounces garlic-and-herb goat cheese, at room temperature, such as Montrachet
4 tablespoons (1/2 stick) unsalted butter, at room temperature
1 1/2 cups sour cream
1/2 cup half-and-half or milk
1/2 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Place the potatoes, garlic and 1 tablespoon salt in a large pot with enough water to cover the potatoes. Bring to a boil over high heat, reduce to a simmer and cook for 20 to 25 minutes, until very tender.

  • Pour the mixture into a 9-by-12-by-2-inch oval baking dish, smoothing the top. Sprinkle the Parmesan on top and bake for 30 to 40 minutes, until lightly browned. Serve hot.

Yield Serves 4 to 6

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 1/2 pounds russet (baking) potatoes
1 1/2 cups thinly sliced well-washed white and pale green part of leek
3/4 cup finely chopped onion
2 garlic cloves, minced
3 tablespoons unsalted butter
2/3 cup milk
1 1/2 cups crumbled mild goat cheese such as Montrachet (about 6 ounces)
1/4 cup minced fresh chives

Steps:

  • In a saucepan combine the potatoes, peeled and cut into 1-inch pieces, with enough cold water to cover them by 1 inch and simmer them for 10 to 15 minutes, or until they are tender. While the potatoes are cooking, in a heavy skillet cook the leek, the onion, and the garlic in 2 tablespoons of the butter, covered, over moderate heat, stirring occasionally, for 10 minutes, or until the vegetables are soft. Drain the potatoes, return them to the pan, and steam them over moderate heat, shaking the pan, for 30 seconds, or until any excess liquid is evaporated. Force the potatoes through a ricer or the medium disk of a food mill into a bowl and stir in the milk, the remaining 1 tablespoon butter, the leek mixture, half the goat cheese, the chives, and salt and pepper to taste. Spoon the mixture into a buttered 2-quart baking dish, sprinkle the remaining goat cheese over the top, and bake the mixture in the middle of a preheated 350°F. oven for 20 minutes.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Healthy Recipes     Gluten-Free Recipes

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 1/2 pounds baking potatoes (3 medium), peeled and cut into 2-inch chunks
Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper
1 cup milk
4 ounces soft goat cheese
2 scallions, thinly sliced

Steps:

  • In a large saucepan, combine potatoes, 1 teaspoon salt, and enough cold water to cover by 2 inches. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat; reduce to medium-low, and simmer until tender, but not falling apart, 14 to 16 minutes.
  • Drain and return potatoes to saucepan over medium-low heat; add milk and goat cheese. Mash with a potato masher until smooth and creamy. Season with salt and pepper; fold in scallions, and serve.

Tips:

  • For a smoother texture, peel the potatoes before boiling.
  • Use Yukon Gold or Russet potatoes for the best results.
  • Do not overcook the potatoes, as they will become mushy.
  • Use fresh leeks and chives for the best flavor.
  • If you don't have fresh herbs, you can use 1 teaspoon of dried chives or 1/2 teaspoon of dried thyme.
  • Be careful not to overmix the potatoes, as this will make them gluey.
  • Serve the mashed potatoes immediately, or they will start to lose their fluffy texture.

Conclusion:

Goat cheese mashed potatoes with leeks and chives are a delicious and elegant side dish that is perfect for any occasion. They are easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. Whether you are serving them for a special dinner party or a casual weeknight meal, these mashed potatoes are sure to be a hit.
