1 1/2 pounds Yukon gold potatoes, about 5 potatoes
2 large cloves garlic
Salt
1 cup half-n-half or whole milk
3 tablespoons butter
1 bunch scallions, 5 to 6
White pepper
About 2 teaspoons Sichuan peppercorns
1 tablespoon black peppercorns
4 steaks (6 to 7 ounces) beef tenderloin filet, each about 1 1/4 inches thick
Kosher salt
2 shallots
1 inch ginger root
2 cloves garlic

3 tablespoons butter
About 1/4 cup Shaoxing Chinese sherry or 2 tablespoons cognac or brandy
1 cup beef bone broth or stock

Steps:

  • Heat a large cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat.
  • Peel and finely chop the shallots. Peel ginger with tip of a teaspoon and have a fine grater on hand. Crush the garlic and discard skins and root.
  • To skillet add EVOO, 1 turn of the pan, and melt in 1 tablespoon butter. Add steaks and cook 2 to 3 minutes to brown. Flip and cook 2 minutes more. Remove to platter. Add 2 tablespoons butter and when it foams add the shallots, garlic and grate in the ginger. Stir a minute or 2, then add sherry or cognac or brandy, stir, and add bone broth. Reduce by half, 2 to 3 minutes. Finish with creme fraiche to taste. Add beef back to pan and turn to warm in the sauce.

BROWN BUTTER MASHED POTATOES

Provided by Ree Drummond : Food Network

Categories     side-dish

Time 45m

Yield 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

5 pounds Yukon gold potatoes
2 1/2 sticks (1 1/4 cups) salted butter, at room temperature
1 1/2 packages cream cheese (12 ounces total), at room temperature
1/2 cup half-and-half
1/2 cup heavy cream
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
Milk, if needed, for thinning
Chopped fresh parsley, for garnish

Steps:

  • Peel the potatoes, rinse in cold water and cut into fourths. Place the potatoes in a large pot and cover with water. Bring to a boil and cook until fork-tender, 20 to 25 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, add the butter to a saucepan over medium heat. Allow the butter to brown, 2 to 3 minutes, being careful not to burn it. Swirl the pan as you go, stopping when the solids turn medium to deep golden brown.
  • Drain the potatoes, then return them to the pot. With the burner on low heat, mash the potatoes with a potato masher; the more steam that's released while you mash, the better. Mash for about 5 minutes. Turn off the burner.
  • Add the cream cheese, half-and-half, cream, some salt and pepper and three-quarters of the brown butter to the pot and stir to combine. If the mixture needs thinning, add some milk. Check the seasonings, adding salt and pepper to taste. Drizzle the remaining brown butter over the top. Sprinkle with fresh parsley.

Categories     Potato     Side     Thanksgiving     Vegetarian     Quick & Easy     Fall     Winter     Gourmet     Pescatarian     Wheat/Gluten-Free     Peanut Free     Tree Nut Free     Soy Free     No Sugar Added     Kosher

Yield Makes 8 to 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

5 lb yellow-fleshed potatoes such as Yukon Gold, peeled and cut into 1-inch pieces
1 tablespoon salt
1 cup whole milk
1/2 cup sour cream
1 1/2 sticks (3/4 cup) unsalted butter
2 bunches scallions, cut crosswise into 1/2-inch pieces
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
Special Equipment
a potato masher or a food mill fitted with medium disk

Steps:

  • Cover potatoes with cold water by 2 inches in a 5- to 6-quart heavy pot and add 1 1/2 teaspoons salt. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer, uncovered, until potatoes are tender, 10 to 15 minutes.
  • Drain potatoes in a colander, then return to pot and cook over moderate heat, shaking pot occasionally, until dry, 1 to 2 minutes. Mash hot potatoes with masher or force through food mill into another pot, then cover to keep warm.
  • Bring milk with remaining 1 1/2 teaspoons salt just to a boil in a 1-quart saucepan, then remove from heat and stir into potatoes until combined. Stir in sour cream, then cover and keep warm.
  • Cook butter in a 12-inch heavy skillet over moderately high heat, stirring frequently and scraping up brown bits, until foam subsides and butter is golden brown, about 8 minutes. Add scallions and pepper and cook, stirring, until slightly softened, about 2 minutes. Fold butter mixture into mashed potatoes and season with salt.

Tips:

  • Use Yukon Gold or russet potatoes: These varieties are best for mashing because they have a high starch content, which makes them fluffy and smooth.
  • Peel the potatoes before boiling: This will help the potatoes cook more evenly and prevent the skins from toughening.
  • Boil the potatoes in salted water: This will help to flavor the potatoes and prevent them from becoming bland.
  • Drain the potatoes thoroughly: This will help to prevent the potatoes from becoming watery.
  • Mash the potatoes with a potato ricer: This will give you the smoothest, creamiest mashed potatoes.
  • Add the brown butter and scallions last: This will help to keep the brown butter from burning and the scallions from becoming too wilted.
  • Season the mashed potatoes to taste: Add salt, pepper, and other seasonings as desired.

Conclusion:

Brown butter and scallion mashed potatoes are a delicious and easy-to-make side dish that is perfect for any occasion. They are creamy, flavorful, and have a hint of nuttiness from the brown butter. The scallions add a pop of freshness and color. These mashed potatoes are sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
