Smashed Potatoes With Sour Cream And Chives Food

CREAMY MASHED POTATOES WITH SOUR CREAM AND CHIVES

Steps:

• Place potatoes in a large pot. Add enough cold water to cover the potatoes by about 1 inch. Add plenty of salt to the water. Bring to a boil over high heat. Once the water boils, reduce the heat so that the water is simmering. Simmer uncovered until the potatoes are very tender when pierced with a knife, about 10-12 minutes. Drain the potatoes really well; return them to the pot.
• Turn the stove to low heat and gently shake the pan of potatoes over the low flame for about 1 minute, just to make sure that any excess moisture evaporates. You want really dry potatoes!
• Use a potato masher, potato ricer, or food mill to mash the potatoes. Add the butter and enough half-and-half or milk until the potatoes are very creamy (you might not need all of the milk, so add it gradually and stop when the potatoes reach the desired consistency). Whisk in the sour cream and chives until completely combined. Taste and season with salt and pepper. Transfer to a serving bowl and top with additional butter or chives, if desired.

SOUR CREAM MASHED POTATOES WITH BACON AND CHIVES

Steps:

• Put the potatoes in a medium pot, cover with cold water and add 2 tablespoons salt. Bring just to a simmer and cook the potatoes, uncovered, until tender, about 45 minutes. Drain.
• Peel the potatoes and return them to the pot (if desired, pass them through a ricer or food mill after peeling). Mash the potatoes with the sour cream and butter using a fork or potato masher. Stir in the bacon, chives, 2 teaspoons salt and freshly ground pepper to taste.

SOUR CREAM AND CHIVE MASHED POTATOES

SOUR CREAM AND CHIVE MASHED POTATOES

Steps:

• Cover the potatoes with 1 inch of cold water in a large saucepan. Bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer and cook until the potatoes are fork tender, about 20 minutes. In a small pot over low heat combine half-and-half and butter. Heat until hot but not simmering.
• Drain the potatoes in a colander, tossing to remove any excess water. Wipe the saucepan dry. Add the potatoes back to the saucepan and mash to a uniform consistency (or process through a food mill back into the dry pot). Give it a quick mix with a hand mixer to incorporate some air and ensure a smooth texture. Do not overmix or potatoes will become gummy.
• Using a flexible rubber spatula, fold in the melted butter and half-and-half mixture until just incorporated. Fold in sour cream and 1/4 cup chives and season with salt and pepper.
• Transfer to serving bowl and garnish with chopped chives.

CHIVE AND GARLIC MASHED POTATOES

Steps:

• Put the cut potatoes into a large pot, cover them with cold water, and add a large pinch of salt. Bring to a boil and simmer until the potatoes are fork tender, about 20 to 30 minutes. Drain well. Meanwhile, in a small pot heat the cream, butter, garlic, and thyme. While the potatoes are still warm, press them through a potato ricer or food mill into a bowl. Stir in the warm cream a bit at a time, straining out the solids, until the potatoes are fluffy. Season with salt and pepper and gently fold in the chives. Serve immediately.

SOUR CREAM MASHED POTATOES

Steps:

• Cut the potatoes into 1-inch cubes and place them in a large pot. Cover the potatoes with cold water and add enough salt so the water tastes quite salty. Bring to a boil, then lower the heat and simmer, uncovered, for about 10 to 12 minutes, until the potatoes fall apart easily when pierced with a fork.
• Meanwhile, heat the milk and butter in a small saucepan, making sure it doesn't boil. Set aside until the potatoes are done.
• As soon as the potatoes are tender, drain them in a colander. Place a food mill fitted with a small disc/blade over a glass bowl. Process the potatoes through the food mill, turning the handle back and forth to force the potatoes through the disc. As soon as the potatoes are mashed, slowly whisk in enough of the hot milk/butter mixture to make the potatoes very creamy. Add 2 teaspoons of salt and the sour cream and pepper and whisk to combine. Taste for seasoning and serve hot.

SMASHED POTATOES

Steps:

• Place potatoes in a saucepan, fill with water to cover the potatoes, and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to a simmer, and cook the potatoes until tender but not mushy, about 20 minutes. Drain and allow potatoes to cool.
• While potatoes are cooking, combine olive oil, butter, balsamic vinegar, garlic, rosemary, sage, thyme, savory, sea salt and pepper in a bowl. Stir with a fork to combine well.
• Preheat an oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Place the potatoes in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, and lightly press down on the potatoes to partially crush them. Spoon the oil-herb mixture over each potato.
• Bake in the preheated oven until the edges of the potatoes are beginning to crisp, about 25 minutes. Cool for about 5 minutes before serving.

SOUR CREAM AND CHIVE POTATOES

Steps:

• Preheat your oven to 350°F and line the bottom of a 9x9-inch square baking pan with foil (I use release foil, but if you're not, grease the foil).
• With a really sharp knife (if you know how to do it) or a mandolin, cut the potatoes just about paper thin (like potato chips); place slices in a bowl of water and set aside.
• In a medium sauce pan, over medium heat, melt the butter then add the flour and cook, stirring constantly, for about 3-5 minutes or until it starts to smell nutty.
• Whisk in the broth and the cream then bring it to a boil.
• Remove from the heat and add the chives, sour cream, salt, and pepper.
• Spread a little of the chive sauce on the bottom of the lines pan then place two layers of potatoes on top of that.
• Spread more of the chive sauce on that, sprinkle with cheese and start again the two layers of potatoes, then the cream sauce, then the cheese (You should get about 4 to 5 layers if the potatoes are really thinly sliced).
• Cover with foil and bake for 45 minutes then remove the foil and bake for another 15 minutes (the potatoes should fork tender, and if they're not, just cover them and cook them for another 10-15 minutes).
• Let rest on your counter for at least 10 minutes before cutting.
