New Orleans Potatoes image

My husband and I had a favorite restaurant called Harrigan's. They are no longer in business and we miss their menu so much. They served this New Orleans Potato Casserole and it was one of our favorites. I searched for the recipe and finally found one however it called for 5 pounds of potatoes. I have modified the recipe to use about 1.5 pounds of potatoes. I hope you enjoy this as much as we do! This recipe makes about 4 cups of casserole.

Categories     Mashed Potatoes

Time 25m

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

5 red potatoes
1/3 cup sour cream
1/2 cup cream cheese
3/4 cup sharp cheddar cheese
1 1/2 ounces bacon bits
2 green onions
1/8 teaspoon creole seasoning
1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper

Steps:

  • 1. Wash 5 medium (about 1.5 pounds) red skin potatoes thoroughly with a vegetable brush.
  • 2. Cut into cubes with the skins on and gently boil until the potatoes are tender (I add a little salt to the water as they are cooking).
  • 3. Drain the potatoes and return them to the hot pan. Turn the fire back on if needed to evaporate the water from the potatoes.
  • 4. Partially mash the potatoes.
  • 5. Stir in sour cream, cream cheese, grated cheddar cheese, bacon bits (I use Oscar Meyer or Hormel. They come in 3 oz. containers so I use half) & green onion (thinly sliced including the green tops).
  • Spray a casserole dish lightly with cooking spray and add your casserole. Serve immediately or keep warm in a 200 degree oven for up to 1 hour.

These potatoes were a waste of time and ingredients. They were dry and flavorless.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my potatoes turned out mushy. I think I might have overcooked them.

These potatoes were a bit bland for my taste, but they were still a good side dish.

I had some trouble getting the potatoes to brown, but they eventually turned out great. I think I just needed to cook them for a little longer.

These potatoes were a bit too salty for my taste, but overall they were still good.

I'm not a huge fan of potatoes, but these were really good. The crispy topping was my favorite part.

I followed the recipe exactly and my potatoes turned out perfect. They were crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside.

These potatoes were a hit at my last dinner party! They were so creamy and flavorful, and the crispy topping was the perfect finishing touch.
