Provided by Sommer Collier

Categories     dinner     Side Dish

Time 50m

Number Of Ingredients 7

5 pounds Yukon Gold potatoes
4 cloves garlic, (minced)
1 cup unsalted butter
1 cup half & half
2 cups shredded fontina cheese (+ 1/2 cup if baking)
Salt (and pepper)
Chopped chive (for garnish)

Steps:

  • Set out the cold ingredients to bring to room temperature. Set a large pot of cold water on the stovetop. Peel the potatoes and cut into 1-inch cubes. Add them to the cold water immediately so they do not brown. Add the garlic and 1 tablespoon salt to the water and bring to a boil. Once boiling, lower the heat and simmer for 10-14 minutes, until you can easily cut the potatoes with a butter knife.
  • Drain the potatoes and immediately mash. Do this with a potato masher, or by placing them in the bowl of an electric mixer and beating. Mash the potatoes until almost completely smooth. Do not over-mash.
  • Place the butter and half & half in a microwave-safe bowl and warm so that the butter melts into the half & half.
  • Once the potatoes are mashed, add the butter mixture to the potatoes and mix to incorporate. Then mix in the cheese and salt and pepper to taste. Serve the hot fluffy mashed potatoes as-is or bake. (Baking makes them even better!)
  • Baking instructions: For a crispy top, preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Scoop the mashed potatoes into a large sauté pan. Sprinkle with an additional 1/2 cup shredded fontina cheese, and bake for 20 minutes. Once out of the oven sprinkle with chopped chive and serve warm.

MOCK MASHED POTATOES



Mock Mashed Potatoes image

This creamy, garlicky mash is made from cauliflower instead of potatoes. We use garlic and thyme for depth and nonfat Greek yogurt and a little Parmesan for dairy richness and tang.

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Categories     side-dish

Time 45m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 medium heads cauliflower (1 1/2 pounds each)
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
2 teaspoons fresh thyme leaves, chopped
3 cloves garlic, finely chopped
1/2 cup nonfat Greek yogurt
1/4 cup grated Parmesan
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 tablespoon unsalted butter

Steps:

  • Core the cauliflower heads and cut the stems and florets into 1-inch pieces.
  • Bring 1 inch water to a boil in a large saucepan fitted with a steamer insert. Put the cauliflower into the pot, cover and steam until tender, 10 to 12 minutes. Lift the cauliflower pieces from the saucepan and spread out on a large platter lined with a clean kitchen towel. Let the cauliflower dry for 5 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, combine the oil, thyme and garlic in a small nonstick skillet. Cook over medium-low heat, stirring occasionally, until the garlic is fragrant and beginning to brown, about 3 minutes. Scrape the garlic oil into the bowl of a food processor.
  • Add the cauliflower, yogurt, Parmesan, and 1 teaspoon salt and several turns of black pepper to the food processor and blend until smooth and light, scraping down the bowl as needed. Transfer to a bowl and top with the butter and some more black pepper. Stir the butter into the cauliflower before serving.

THE BEST MASHED POTATOES



The Best Mashed Potatoes image

This is our go-to recipe for classic mashed potatoes, made with plenty of butter and cream. To make them fluffy and flavorful, be sure to simmer them slowly and add plenty of salt to the cooking water. And don't skip the step of steaming the excess water off; leaving too much moisture in the potatoes causes them to be loose and gluey.

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Categories     side-dish

Time 40m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 4

2 pounds russet potatoes, peeled and quartered
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 stick (8 tablespoons) unsalted butter, cubed
3/4 cup heavy cream, heated

Steps:

  • Put the potatoes in a large pot and cover with cold water. Generously salt the water and bring to a boil over high heat. Then lower the heat to medium and gently simmer until the potatoes are completely tender when pierced with the tip of a knife, about 30 minutes.
  • Drain the potatoes well and return them to the pot. Place the pot over low heat and let any residual water steam off, about 2 minutes. Mash the potatoes well with a potato masher. Fold in the butter with a spatula until melted, and then fold in the cream. Season with salt and pepper.

Tips:

  • Use Yukon Gold or Russet potatoes: These varieties are ideal for mashed potatoes because they have a high starch content, which makes them creamy and smooth.
  • Peel the potatoes before boiling: This will help the potatoes cook evenly and prevent the skins from becoming tough.
  • Boil the potatoes in salted water: The salt will help to enhance the flavor of the potatoes.
  • Drain the potatoes thoroughly: This will help to prevent the mashed potatoes from being watery.
  • Mash the potatoes until smooth: Use a potato masher or a ricer to mash the potatoes until they are completely smooth. Do not over-mash the potatoes, as this will make them gluey.
  • Add butter, milk, and seasonings: Gradually add butter, milk, and seasonings to the mashed potatoes, while stirring constantly. This will help to create a creamy and flavorful mashed potato dish.
  • Serve immediately: Mashed potatoes are best served immediately after they are made. However, they can be kept warm in a slow cooker or in a covered dish in a warm oven for up to 30 minutes.

Conclusion:

With these tips in mind, you can create the perfect mashed potatoes for any occasion. Whether you are serving them as a side dish for a holiday meal or as a comforting meal on a cold winter night, mashed potatoes are sure to be a hit. So next time you are looking for a delicious and easy-to-make side dish, give these mashed potato recipes a try.
