MOM'S POTATO PUFFS
My mother would always cook extra mashed potatoes so us kids could have these delicious puffs the next day. Over the years I have experimented with her basic recipe and sometimes will add grated cheddar cheese, chopped green onions and bacon bits to the mixture. I have also added corn niblets for a really different tasting puff.

HOCKEY PUCK POTATOES
Hockey puck potatoes are delicious roasted potatoes that resemble hockey pucks in appearance, hence the name. Our family loves them! Well I had been giving my FIL credit for these, however I just found out that my DH (George) was the originator, so now I'm giving him credit. My contribution to the recipe was add the rosemary and basil. Please enjoy!

POTATO PUCKS
Crispy on the outside, tender and moist inside, and the preparation and appearance are conversation starters! Can be prepped ahead, so these are great for entertaining (but they are one of my family's favorites for any dinner). Recipe is an amalgam of Crash Hot Potatoes from Jill Dupleix and Smashed Potatoes published around Easter in the Seattle Times.

BAKED POTATO PUFFS
The hardest line cook job I ever had was at the Carnelian Room, where on a busy night I'd prepare over 250 steaks and chops. The biggest challenge was frying French potato puffs to order. Called pommes dauphine, it's one of the finest foods ever invented. To save your kitchen from that deep fryer smell, I wanted to try a baked version. I was very happy with the results. Even though they weren't as dark and crispy as the fried version, the inside was virtually identical. Enjoy these as a warm snack with a dip, or to go alongside some eggs or grilled steak.
