KATHY'S MUSHY POTATOES

My now-deceased uncle used to make these when I was a little girl. He lived with us and loved to cook. My Moms' friends would come to visit and they would beg him to make them for a snack! I have made them for years and they are a family favorite with just about any dish. I vary them sometimes by adding shredded cheeses or even Velveeta. I guess you could call them a variation of scallopped potatoes but we just like to call them 'mushy'!!

Time 40m

Yield 6 1/2 cup servings, 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

6 potatoes, peeled and thinly sliced
1 1/2 cups water
salt and pepper
1 cup heavy whipping cream
1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese (optional)

Steps:

  • Add the peeled and sliced potatoes to a large skillet and add the water. Bring to boiling and stir the potatoes to prevent sticking until fork tender. (I try to make them al dente like pasta) You may have to add more water, play this by ear and just eyeball it. Once the potatoes are tender and most of the water has evaporated add the cream, salt and pepper and continue to heat until thickened and creamy. If you are adding cheese add it with the cream.
  • ( sometimes it is necessary to add more cream if the potatoes look dry -- remember they are supposed to be creamy and 'mushy').
  • Hope you like these as much as we do.

Categories     side-dish

Time 45m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

24 ounces multicolored creamer potatoes, halved lengthwise
1/4 cup olive oil, plus additional for drizzling
1 1/2 teaspoons garlic salt
1/2 cup mayonnaise
1 tablespoon chopped fresh chives
1 tablespoon chopped fresh dill
1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Place 2 stacked rimmed baking sheets in the oven and let them heat with the oven (stacking them helps the pans hold the heat).
  • Toss the potatoes with the oil and 1 teaspoon garlic salt in a bowl. Remove the heated pans from the oven and arrange the potatoes in an even layer, cut-side down, in the top pan. Return the pans to the oven and bake for 15 minutes, then flip the potatoes and bake until both sides are toasted and brown, another 15 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, add the mayo, chives, dill, parsley and remaining 1/2 teaspoon garlic salt to a food processor and pulse until chunky.
  • Smear the aioli on the bottom of a serving platter. Pile the potatoes on top of the aioli. Drizzle with more olive oil and season with salt and pepper.

MELTING POTATOES

Categories     side-dish

Time 40m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

4 russet potatoes
Kosher salt and freshly cracked black pepper
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
10 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 cup low-sodium chicken broth
2 sprigs fresh rosemary
2 cloves garlic
Flaky salt, to garnish

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
  • Peel the potatoes and slice off the ends. Cut into 1-inch slices. Season both sides of the potatoes generously with kosher salt and pepper.
  • Heat a cast-iron skillet (or other heavy-duty, ovenproof skillet) over medium-high heat. Add the oil and 4 tablespoons of the butter. Sear the potatoes on one side until golden brown, about 4 minutes. Flip the potatoes and add the broth, rosemary and garlic. Cut the remaining 6 tablespoons butter into cubes and scatter on top of the potatoes. Transfer the skillet to the oven and cook until fork-tender, about 30 minutes. Garnish with flaky salt and spoon the pan sauce all over the potatoes.

Tips:

  • Use Yukon Gold potatoes. This variety of potato is best for roasting because it holds its shape well and has a creamy texture.
  • Cut the potatoes into even-sized pieces. This will help them cook evenly.
  • Toss the potatoes with olive oil, salt, and pepper. This will help them brown and crisp.
  • Roast the potatoes at a high temperature. This will help them get crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside.
  • Shake the potatoes halfway through roasting. This will help them brown evenly.
  • Serve the potatoes immediately. They are best when they are hot and crispy.

Conclusion:

Roasted potatoes are a classic side dish that can be enjoyed with a variety of meals. They are easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste. Whether you like them crispy or fluffy, roasted potatoes are sure to be a hit. So next time you are looking for a simple and delicious side dish, give roasted potatoes a try.
