HAM POTATO PUFFS



Ham Potato Puffs image

A versatile, easy recipe for leftover mashed potatoes and ham. Serve with steamed green beans, cauliflower, corn on the cob, or broccoli. Concerning the seasonings, the exact cheese, the use of green onion, or maybe bacon instead of ham, feel free to experiment. I also think if you had ham and some sort of leftover potato casserole you could use the same technique. In any case, relax and have fun with your leftovers!

Time 40m

Yield 5 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 (12 ounce) package refrigerated buttermilk biscuits
1 cup ham, cubed fully cooked
2 cups mashed potatoes, leftovers
1 cup cheddar cheese, shredded and DIVIDED
1/2 teaspoon parsley flakes
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon green onion (optional)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • Spray a 12 count muffin tin with cooking spray.
  • Mold biscuits to the shape of each biscuit cup. You will need to snip a bit from each in order to get 12 altogether-the biscuits I buy only have 8 in them.
  • In a large bowl, combine the ham, potatoes, 3/4 cup cheese, parsley, and garlic powder if using and green onion if using.
  • Divide ham mixture between the 12 cups.
  • Bake for about 25 minutes, or until done. (Use a toothpick to check if biscuit is done, then use a spoon to see if underside is brown enough, if not bake longer).
  • Sprinkle with remaining 1/4 cup of cheese and continue baking until cheese on top melts. (I put a large cooking sheet underneath so that the melting cheese does not mess up my oven).
  • Serve warm.
  • Refrigerate leftovers, or freeze.

Tips:

  • For the flakiest potato puffs, use cold potatoes. This will help to create a light and airy texture.
  • Grate the potatoes finely. This will help them to cook evenly and prevent them from becoming lumpy.
  • Be sure to squeeze out as much of the excess moisture from the potatoes as possible. This will help to prevent the puffs from becoming soggy.
  • Use a combination of all-purpose flour and cornstarch. This will help to create a crispy exterior and a tender interior.
  • Be careful not to overmix the batter. Overmixing will make the puffs tough.
  • Fry the puffs in hot oil until they are golden brown and crispy. This will take about 3-4 minutes per side.
  • Serve the puffs hot with your favorite dipping sauce.

Conclusion:

Ham and potato puffs are a delicious and versatile snack or side dish. They are easy to make and can be customized to your liking. With a few simple tips, you can make perfect ham and potato puffs every time. Enjoy!
