BAKED FETA MASHED POTATOES



Baked Feta Mashed Potatoes image

We took inspiration from the wildly popular baked feta pasta recipe of TikTok fame and reimagined it to create a big-batch thanksgiving side dish. The best part is no more boiling water and crowding your stovetop. Instead, we put all the ingredients together in one dish and then bake it in the oven. Cooking the dish covered helps simmer and steam the potatoes at the same time, making them smooth and fluffy when mashed. The baked feta bubbles and melts into the potatoes to lend a subtle and delicious tanginess.

Categories     side-dish

Time 2h

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

6 tablespoons unsalted butter, cut into cubes, plus more for the dish
4 pounds russet potatoes, peeled, quartered lengthwise and sliced into 1/4-inch-thick pieces
2 cups half-and-half
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
One 7-ounce block feta cheese
1/2 cup sour cream
1 tablespoon chopped chives

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Grease a 9-by-13-by-2-inch (3.75-quart) casserole dish with butter.
  • Put the potatoes in the prepared casserole dish, add the half-and-half and stir to combine. Spread the potatoes in an even layer and place the block of feta in the center, on top of the potatoes. Season with 1 tablespoon salt and a few grinds of pepper and dot the butter over the potatoes. Cover the casserole with aluminum foil and bake until the half-and-half is simmering, the cheese is bubbling and the potatoes are cooked through and very tender when pierced with a small sharp knife, about 1 hour and 20 minutes.
  • Remove and reserve the aluminum foil. Use a potato masher to mash the ingredients in the casserole dish until well combined, smooth and fluffy. Fold in the sour cream and season with salt and pepper. Cover the mashed potatoes with the reserved foil and return to the oven until warmed through, about 10 minutes. Top with the chopped chives and a few grinds of pepper.

Categories     side-dish

Time 50m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

1/2 cup garlic cloves, peeled (about 1 head)
1 cup extra-virgin olive oil
3 pounds Yukon gold potatoes, peeled and quartered
Kosher salt
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1/4 cup heavy cream, half-and-half, or creme fraiche

Steps:

  • In a small saucepan, bring the garlic and oil to a boil, then turn the heat to low and cook uncovered for 5 minutes, or until the garlic is lightly browned. Turn off the heat and set aside. The garlic will continue to cook in the oil.
  • Meanwhile, place the potatoes in a large pot of salted water, bring to a boil, and cook for 15 to 20 minutes, until the potatoes are very tender. With a slotted spoon, remove the potatoes from the water, reserving the cooking water, and remove the garlic from the oil, reserving the oil.
  • Process the potatoes and garlic through a food mill fitted with the medium disk. Add the reserved olive oil, 2 teaspoons of salt, the pepper, cream, and 3/4 cup of the cooking water to the potatoes and mix with a wooden spoon. Add more cooking water, if necessary, until the potatoes are creamy but still firm. Season, to taste, and serve hot.

SIMPLE GARLIC & FETA SMASHED POTATOES



Simple Garlic & Feta Smashed Potatoes image

This was a spur of the moment experiment. I had a craving for mashed potatoes, but I hate peeling them (they say that all the nutrients are in the skin anyway, so I like to leave them on) and was kinda bored with regular mashed potatoes. I checked the fridge and this is what happened. Every single time that I serve these potatoes, they are gone in record time. Please keep in mind that I am a "measure by eye" type, so the recipe may need to be adjusted to suit your tastes. Enjoy!

4 -5 large potatoes, skin on, chopped
3 -4 garlic cloves, peeled

  • Salt and pepper to taste.
  • Enjoy.
