Categories     Main Dish Recipes     Seafood Main Dish Recipes     Halibut

Time 45m

Yield 2

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 pound red potatoes, cut into chunks
5 cloves garlic, minced
½ teaspoon salt
3 tablespoons butter
¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
¼ cup hazelnuts
¼ cup seasoned bread crumbs
2 halibut fillets
¼ teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 tablespoon butter
5 tablespoons butter
3 tablespoons vegetable broth

Steps:

  • Place the potatoes into a large pot, and cover with water. Bring to a boil over high heat; reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until tender, about 20 minutes. While the potatoes are boiling, mash the garlic with 1/2 teaspoon of salt into a smooth paste. Drain potatoes, then mash together with the garlic paste, butter, and pepper. Keep warm.
  • Preheat an oven to 500 degrees F (260 degrees C).
  • While the potatoes are cooking, Preheat an oven to 500 degrees F (260 degrees C). Pulse the hazelnuts and bread crumbs in a food processor until finely ground, but not ground into a paste. Pour onto a shallow dish. Season the halibut fillets on both sides with 1/4 teaspoon of salt. Gently press one side of the halibut fillets into the nut mixture, and set aside.
  • Heat the olive oil and 1 tablespoon of butter in an ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat. Place the halibut fillets nut-side-up into the skillet; cook until the halibut begins to brown, 3 to 4 minutes. Turn the fillets over, and place into the preheated oven. Bake, nut-side-down until the fish flakes easily with a fork, about 5 minutes.
  • Melt the remaining 5 tablespoons of butter in a small saucepan over medium-high heat until it turns nut brown. Stir in the vegetable broth, and bring to a simmer.
  • To serve, mound the potatoes onto the center of each dinner plate. Place a halibut fillet on top of the mashed potatoes nut-side-up, then drizzle with the browned butter sauce.

BROWN BUTTER MASHED POTATOES



Brown Butter Mashed Potatoes image

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.

HAZELNUT-BROWNED BUTTER MASHED POTATOES RECIPE

Hazelnut-Browned Butter Mashed Potatoes from the Tasting Table Test Kitchen

Provided by Tasting Table Staff

Categories     Side Dish, Vegetable

Number Of Ingredients 6

⅔ cup hazelnuts
2½ sticks unsalted butter
2 tablespoons plus 2½ teaspoons kosher salt, divided
6 large Russet potatoes (about 2½ pounds)--peeled, halved and each half quartered
1½ cups heavy cream
¼ cup whole milk (or more heavy cream)

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375°. On a rimmed baking sheet, place the hazelnuts and toast in the oven until the skins begin to curl away and the hazelnuts are fragrant, 8 to 10 minutes. Remove from the oven and transfer to a kitchen towel-lined bowl. Cover the nuts with the corners of the towel so the nuts are completely enclosed and set aside for a few minutes to steam. Rub the nuts inside the towel to remove the skins, then transfer the skinned hazelnuts to a cutting board and roughly chop.
  • To a medium saucepan set over medium heat, add the butter. Once the butter is melted, add the chopped hazelnuts. Cook, swirling the pan often, until the hazelnuts are a rich, brown color, the butter is very fragrant and the milk solids in the bottom of the pan are browned, 12 to 15 minutes. Turn off the heat and use a slotted spoon to remove the hazelnuts from the butter and transfer to a paper towel-lined plate. Sprinkle the hazelnuts with a ½ teaspoon of salt.
  • While the hazelnuts toast in the butter, bring a large pot of water set over high heat to a boil. Add the potatoes and 2 tablespoons salt, reduce the heat to medium and boil the potatoes until a paring knife easily slides into the center of a piece and the potatoes are tender but not mealy around the edges, 12 to 15 minutes. Drain the potatoes.
  • While the potatoes are still warm, press them through a potato ricer and into a large bowl (a food mill or a potato masher work, too, but the latter will yield less creamy mashed potatoes). Drizzle in the hazelnut-browned butter while using a fork to fluff and stir into the potatoes.
  • In a small saucepan set over medium-high heat, add the cream, milk and remaining 1 teaspoon of salt and bring to a simmer. Drizzle the cream mixture over the potatoes, using the fork to fluff and stir it in. Transfer the mashed potatoes to a serving bowl, sprinkle with the salted hazelnuts and serve. (If making the potatoes in advance, add half of the cream mixture and wait to add the remaining hot cream until just before serving.)

MAKE-AHEAD MASHED POTATOES WITH BROWNED BUTTER



Make-Ahead Mashed Potatoes With Browned Butter image

This is my favorite make-ahead mashed potato recipe, adapted from Southern Living. In fact, it's my favorite mashed potato recipe of all that I've tried. It presents beautifully and can stand alone without gravy or further butter. (And it doubles nicely.) Enjoy!

Provided by quikgourmet

Categories     Potato

Time 1h10m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

3/4 cup butter
4 lbs yukon gold potatoes, peeled and cut into 2-inch pieces
1 tablespoon salt, divided
3/4 cup buttermilk
1/2 cup milk
1/4 teaspoon pepper

Steps:

  • Bring the potatoes, 2 teaspoons salt, and water to a boil. While waiting for the potatoes to come to a boil, melt butter in a heavy saucepan over medium heat, stirring constantly for 6-8 minutes or just until butter begins to turn golden brown. Immediately remove pan from heat, and pour butter into a small bowl as butter will continue to get darker if it's left in the saucepan. From the small bowl, remove and reserve 2 tablespoons of the browned butter. Set aside to refrigerate for later use.
  • Boil potatoes 20 minutes or until tender. Drain. Reduce heat to low and return potatoes to the pan; cook, stirring occasionally, 3-5 minutes or until potatoes are dry.
  • Mash potatoes. Stir in browned butter from the small bowl (meaning all but the 2 tablespoons); buttermilk, milk, pepper, and remaining 1 teaspoon salt, stirring just until blended.
  • Place potatoes in a lightly greased ovenproof serving dish. Cover and chill up to 2 days. When ready to cook, let stand at room temperature 30 minutes. Bake uncovered at 350 for 40 minutes or until thorougly heated. (It took about 60 minutes when I doubled the recipe.) Microwave 2 tablespoons reserved brown butter to melt it; drizzle over potatoes.

Tips for Perfect Browned Butter and Hazelnut Mashed Potatoes:

- **Use high-quality potatoes:** Choose starchy potatoes like Yukon Gold or Russet potatoes for a smooth and fluffy texture. - **Brown the butter to perfection:** Keep a close eye on the butter as it browns to prevent burning. The butter should be a deep golden brown and have a nutty aroma. - **Roast the hazelnuts:** Roasting the hazelnuts intensifies their flavor and makes them more aromatic. - **Season the potatoes generously:** Don't be shy with the salt and pepper. Mashed potatoes need a good amount of seasoning to taste their best. - **Mash the potatoes until smooth:** Use a potato ricer or a food mill to get the smoothest mashed potatoes. - **Garnish with fresh herbs:** A sprinkle of fresh herbs like chives, parsley, or thyme adds a pop of color and flavor to the mashed potatoes.
