Broccoli and Cheese Smashed Potatoes image

This is a Rachel Ray recipe I found on foodnetwork.com. Haven't tried it myself yet, but it sounds delish! Several reviewers advised they used different flavored cheeses with good results, so experiment with what you have. Also be advised this is a dish best eaten the same day it is prepared, as the broccoli tends to get mushy and strong-flavored after day one.

Categories     Mashed Potatoes

Time 45m

Yield 4 cups, 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 1/2 lbs potatoes (Yukon Gold recommended)
1 head broccoli
1 cup whole milk
2 tablespoons butter
1 1/2 cups grated sharp cheddar cheese
salt and pepper

Steps:

  • Halve the potatoes and add to a large pot. Cover with water and bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce the heat to medium-low and cook the potatoes for 10 minutes while you trim and chop broccoli into 1/2-inch dice. Add the broccoli to the potatoes and cook for 5 minutes more. Drain and return to the hot pot to dry. Stir in the milk, butter and cheese and mash until the cheese melts into potatoes and broccoli. Season with salt and pepper, to taste, and transfer to a serving bowl, to serve.

This is the best smashed potato recipe I've ever tried. The potatoes are crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside, and the cheese sauce is to die for.

These potatoes are so easy to make, but they look like they came from a fancy restaurant. I'm definitely going to be making them again.

This recipe is a little too bland for my taste. I think I'll add some more garlic and pepper next time.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my potatoes turned out really dry. I think I might have overcooked them.

I'm not a big fan of broccoli, but I actually really enjoyed these potatoes. The cheese sauce is so good that it makes the broccoli taste amazing.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover mashed potatoes. I also like to add some chopped bacon to the cheese sauce.

I found that the potatoes didn't get crispy enough, even after following the recipe exactly.
