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

1/4 cup minced fresh chives

Steps:

MASHED POTATOES WITH GOAT CHEESE



Mashed Potatoes with Goat Cheese image

Much like sour cream and onion potato chips, creamy goat cheese and scallions make these potatoes just as irresistible.

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 the creamiest mashed potatoes, use starchy potatoes like Russets or Yukon Golds.
  • To prevent the potatoes from becoming gluey, don't overcook them. Cook until they are tender but still hold their shape.
  • Use a potato ricer or food mill to get the smoothest mashed potatoes.
  • If you don't have a potato ricer or food mill, you can mash the potatoes with a fork or potato masher. Just be sure to mash them until they are smooth and creamy.
  • Add the milk, butter, and seasonings to the potatoes while they are still hot. This will help them absorb the flavors better.
  • For a cheesy mashed potato topping, sprinkle with grated Parmesan or cheddar cheese before baking.
  • To add a pop of color and flavor, garnish with fresh herbs like chives, parsley, or cilantro.

Conclusion:

Smashed potatoes with goat cheese and chives are a delicious and easy side dish that can be enjoyed with a variety of meals. They are perfect for a weeknight dinner or a special occasion. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a dish that is sure to impress your family and friends.
