Best 10 Mashed Potato And Turnip Gratin Recipes

CHEESY TURNIP AND POTATO GRATIN

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Lightly butter a 9-inch gratin dish.
• Using a mandoline, slice potatoes and turnip into 1/8-inch-thick slices.
• Layer 1/2 of the potatoes and turnips in the bottom of the gratin dish. Sprinkle 1/2 of the thyme leaves over the vegetables, season with salt and pepper, and top with 1 cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese.
• Layer remaining 1/2 of the potatoes and turnips on top of the cheese. Sprinkle remaining thyme leaves over the vegetables. Season with salt and pepper again. Pour half-and-half evenly over the top and cover with remaining 1 cup Monterey Jack cheese.
• Cover and bake in the preheated oven for 40 minutes. Uncover and continue baking until browned and bubbly, about 10 more minutes. Remove from the oven and let sit 10 minutes before serving.

MASHED POTATOES AU GRATIN

Steps:

• Put the potatoes in a pot and cover with the chicken broth. Bring to a low boil over medium-high heat. Reduce the heat to low, partially cover and simmer until the potatoes are fork-tender, 15 to 20 minutes.
• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Coat a baking dish with nonstick cooking spray.
• While the potatoes are cooking, heat the butter in a skillet over medium heat. Add the shallots and cook until translucent and tender, 7 to 8 minutes. Stir in the garlic and cook an additional minute.
• Transfer the potatoes and chicken broth to a large mixing bowl. Add the butter mixture and half-and-half. Use a handheld electric mixer or a potato masher to mash the potatoes until smooth and creamy. Stir in the salt, 1 cup of the Gruyere and 1/2 cup Parmesan.
• Transfer the mixture to the prepared baking dish and top with the remaining 1 cup Gruyere and 1/2 cup Parmesan. (The dish can be prepared to this point, covered and refrigerated until ready to bake.)
• Bake until the cheese is golden and bubbly, about 30 minutes.

MASHED POTATO AND TURNIP GRATIN

Steps:

• Butter 11x7x2-inch glass or ceramic baking dish. Cook potatoes and turnips in heavy large pot of boiling salted water until tender, about 35 minutes. Drain. Cool vegetables slightly and peel. Cut into large chunks; place in food processor. Add butter and process until smooth, scraping down sides of bowl occasionally. Add 1/4 cup cheese and pinch of ground nutmeg; blend briefly. Season puree to taste with salt and pepper. Spoon into prepared dish. Sprinkle with remaining 1/4 cup cheese. (Gratin can be prepared 1 day ahead. Cover and chill.)
• Preheat oven to 425°F. Bake gratin uncovered until vegetables are hot and top is golden, about 25 minutes.

TURNIP AND POTATO MASH

Steps:

• In a medium saucepan, bring turnips, potatoes, and bay leaf to a boil in salted water over high; cook until vegetables are tender when pierced with a knife, 20 minutes. Drain, discard bay leaf, and return vegetables to pan. Add sour cream and butter, and mash until mostly smooth. Season to taste with salt and pepper.

MASHED YELLOW TURNIPS WITH CRISPY SHALLOTS

Steps:

• Heat the oil and unsalted butter in a saucepan over medium-low heat until it reaches 220 degrees F. Reduce the heat to low, add the shallots, and cook until they are a rich golden brown, 30 to 40 minutes. The temperature should stay below 260 degrees F. Stir the shallots occasionally to make sure they brown evenly. Remove them from the oil with a slotted spoon, drain well, and spread out to cool on paper towels. Once they have dried and crisped, they can be stored at room temperature, covered, for several days.
• Peel the turnips to remove the waxy skins and cut them into generous 1-inch chunks. Place them in a saucepan with water to cover and 1 teaspoon of salt. Bring to a boil and simmer, covered, until easily pierced by a paring knife, about 35 minutes. Drain.
• In a separate saucepan, heat the milk and salted butter over low heat until the butter has melted and the milk just begins to simmer.
• Puree the turnips in several batches in a food processor fitted with the steel blade. With the motor running, add the melted butter and milk in a steady stream. The turnips should be smooth.
• Return the puree to the saucepan, season with 1 teaspoon salt and the pepper, and reheat, stirring, over medium heat. Serve piping hot, sprinkled generously with crispy shallots.

MASHED TURNIPS AND POTATOES WITH TURNIP GREENS

Steps:

• Cut away the greens from the turnips. Peel the turnips and quarter if they're large; cut in half if they're small. Stem the greens and wash in 2 changes of water. Discard the stems.
• Combine the turnips and potatoes in a steamer set above 2 inches of boiling water. Steam until tender, 20 to 25 minutes. Remove from the steamer and transfer to a bowl. Cover the bowl tightly and leave for 5 to 10 minutes so that the vegetables continue to steam and dry out.
• Fill the bottom of the steamer with water and bring to a boil. Add salt to taste and add the greens. Blanch for 2 to 4 minutes, until tender. Transfer to a bowl of cold water using a slotted spoon or skimmer, then drain and squeeze out excess water. Chop fine. Drain the water from the saucepan, rinse and dry.
• Heat 1 tablespoon of the olive oil over medium heat in the saucepan and add the leek and a pinch of salt. Cook, stirring, until leeks are tender and translucent but not colored. Add the milk to the saucepan, bring to a simmer and remove from the heat.
• Using a potato masher, a fork or a standing mixer fitted with the paddle, mash the potatoes and turnips while still hot. Add the turnip greens and combine well. Beat in the hot milk and the additional tablespoon of olive oil if desired, and season to taste with salt and pepper. Serve hot, right away, or transfer to a buttered or oiled baking dish and heat through in a low oven when ready to serve.

TURNIP MASHED POTATOES

Steps:

• Slice potatoes and turnips 1/4-inch thick. Cook in boiling water for 15-20 minutes or until fork-tender. Drain.
• Whip cooked potatoes and turnips with electric mixer, mixing until moderately smooth (don't overbeat them; a few lumps are nice).
• Add hot cream, butter and sour cream. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
• Whip again until blended.
• Adjust thickness by adding more cream, if desired.

TURNIP AND SWEET POTATO GRATIN

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In an 8-inch square baking dish, arrange a single layer of turnips and sweet potatoes, overlapping slightly. Season with salt and pepper and sprinkle with one-third of the flour. Repeat to make 3 more layers, sprinkling with salt, pepper, and flour between layers. Dot top layer with butter, then slowly pour broth and wine into dish, keeping layers intact. Cover with foil and bake until vegetables are tender when pierced with a knife, 45 minutes.
• Increase oven temperature to 425 degrees. Remove foil and sprinkle cheese over dish. Bake until cheese is golden and bubbling, 12 to 15 minutes. Let gratin sit 10 minutes before serving.

TURNIP, POTATO & MUSTARD GRATIN

Steps:

• Fill a saucepan with 500ml water, the milk, a good pinch of salt and a grinding of black pepper, then bring to the boil. Add the turnips and potatoes and cook for 2 mins. Strain, drain well and pat dry.
• Heat oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Butter a baking dish and rub the sides with garlic to just add a hint of flavour. Mix the cream and mustard in a large bowl, add the potatoes and turnip, mix until well coated and season really well. Layer into the baking dish, flattening the top level. Can be assembled and chilled a day ahead.
• Bake for 30-40 mins or until golden brown and the turnip and potato are cooked through - check with the point of a sharp knife.

TURNIP GRATIN

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 150C/130C fan/gas 2. Thinly slice the potatoes and turnips to about 2mm thick - you can use a Japanese mandolin if you have one - then toss together in a large bowl. Pour the cream in a pan, then add the garlic, plenty of salt and some white pepper - be generous when seasoning the cream as the potatoes and turnips aren't seasoned separately. Bring the cream to the boil, then remove from the heat and put to one side. Grease a large gratin dish and layer a third of the potatoes and turnips in the dish, slightly overlapping each other as if you are building a wall. Pour over a third of the warm cream, then continue in this way with the remaining potatoes, turnips and cream.
• Put the gratin in the oven and cook for 20 mins. Remove the dish from the oven and push the potatoes and turnips down with a fish slice. This will help to release the starches and the cream will eventually reduce and thicken. Put the gratin back in the oven and repeat the process every 10 mins until the potatoes and turnips feel tight and firm. Return to the oven for another 20 mins and cook until golden brown and tender - test by inserting a sharp knife through the potatoes and turnips. Remove from the oven and leave to cool slightly.
