"Mashed Potatoes with Ham evolved from scalloped potatoes, which are tasty but time-consuming to bake. "I warmed up leftover mashed potatoes, then decided to throw in some ham to save a dish," Kathy explains. "The next time I made it, I added a cheese and crumb topping to give this casserole an appealing golden look."

Provided by Papa D 1946-2012

Categories     Breakfast

Time 40m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 (26 ounce) bag frozen hash brown potatoes
1 lb ham slices, cut into bite-size pieces
1 (10 3/4 ounce) can cream of potato soup, undiluted
1 small onion, diced
1/4 cup melted butter
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°F.
  • In a small skillet saute onions in butter until tender. Remove from heat and allow to cool slightly.
  • Combine potatoes, cheese, ham slices, soup, onions with butter and pepper in a large bowl.
  • Spoon this mixture into a 13 x 9 inch baking dish sprayed with non-stick.
  • Bake at 350° F for about 35 minutes or until lightly browned.

Tips:

  • Choose the right type of potatoes: For the best mashed potatoes, use starchy potatoes like Yukon Gold or Russet potatoes. These potatoes will give you a smooth and creamy texture.
  • Cook the potatoes properly: Make sure to cook the potatoes until they are tender enough to be easily mashed. Overcooked potatoes will be gluey and unpleasant.
  • Use a potato ricer or food mill: To get the smoothest mashed potatoes, use a potato ricer or food mill to mash the potatoes. This will help to remove any lumps and give you a light and fluffy texture.
  • Add flavorings: To add flavor to your mashed potatoes, you can add a variety of ingredients, such as butter, milk, cream, sour cream, garlic, herbs, and spices. Be creative and experiment with different flavors to find your favorite combination.
  • Serve immediately: Mashed potatoes are best served immediately after they are made. If you need to make them ahead of time, you can reheat them gently in a saucepan over low heat, stirring constantly.

Conclusion:

Mashed potatoes are a classic side dish that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. They are simple to make and can be dressed up or down to suit any occasion. Whether you are making them for a weeknight dinner or a special holiday meal, these tips will help you make the best mashed potatoes possible.
