Yield Serves 4 to 6

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 1/2 pounds russet (baking) potatoes
1 1/2 cups thinly sliced well-washed white and pale green part of leek
3/4 cup finely chopped onion
2 garlic cloves, minced
3 tablespoons unsalted butter
2/3 cup milk
1 1/2 cups crumbled mild goat cheese such as Montrachet (about 6 ounces)
1/4 cup minced fresh chives

Steps:

  • In a saucepan combine the potatoes, peeled and cut into 1-inch pieces, with enough cold water to cover them by 1 inch and simmer them for 10 to 15 minutes, or until they are tender.

Smashed Potatoes With Goat Cheese & Chives image

An easy side dish with great flavor. I love the goat cheese in this! If you want to make these ahead, chill them and reheat before serving, adding some extra liquid. Stir in the chives right before serving.

Categories     Potato

Time 15m

Yield 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

3 lbs peeled baking potatoes, cut into 1 inch pieces
1 1/4 teaspoons salt, divided
2 tablespoons butter
3/4 cup goat cheese, about 6 oz
1/4 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
1 cup 2% low-fat milk
3 tablespoons finely chopped fresh chives

Steps:

  • Place potatoes in a saucepan, and cover with cold water to 2 inches above. Add 1/4 teaspoon salt; bring to a boil. Reduce heat, and simmer 15 minutes or until potatoes are tender; drain. Return the potatoes to pan over low heat; add remaining 1 teaspoon salt and butter to pan. Mash the potatoes with a potato masher to desired consistency.
  • Add cheese and peper to potato mixture; stir until cheese melts. Stir in milk; cook 1 minute or until thoroughly heated, stirring frequently. Remove from heat; stir in chives.

Tips:

  • For a smoother texture, peel the potatoes before boiling. This will also reduce the cooking time.
  • Use a ricer or food mill to mash the potatoes. This will give you a light and fluffy texture.
  • If you don't have a ricer or food mill, you can mash the potatoes with a potato masher. Just be sure to mash them until they are smooth.
  • Add the milk and butter to the potatoes while they are still hot. This will help them absorb the flavors better.
  • Season the potatoes with salt, pepper, and garlic powder to taste.
  • Add the goat cheese, leeks, and chives to the potatoes just before serving. This will prevent the goat cheese from melting and the leeks and chives from wilting.

Conclusion:

Goat cheese mashed potatoes with leeks and chives are a delicious and elegant side dish that is perfect for any occasion. They are easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. Whether you like your mashed potatoes smooth or chunky, with or without garlic, these potatoes are sure to please everyone at the table.
