Time 55m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 4

2 lbs russet potatoes, peeled and quartered
1 cup milk
1 cup packed chopped green onion, bottoms and tops
1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted

Steps:

  • Cook potatoes in a large pot of boiling salted water until tender; drain and return to pot.
  • Cook over low heat until any water from potatoes evaporates.
  • Place a kitchen towel across the top of pot, cover pot with lid and remove from heat; let stand 10 minutes.
  • Mash hot potatoes in pot; set aside.
  • Butter large serving bowl.
  • Bring milk to simmer in medium saucepan.
  • Add chopped green onion and simmer 5 minutes.
  • Add milk mixture and half of melted butter to mashed potatoes and mix well; season to taste with salt and pepper.
  • Spoon potatoes into prepared serving bowl; using back of spoon, make a well in center of potatoes.
  • Pour remaining butter into well and serve.

Tips:

  • For the best results, use Yukon Gold or Russet potatoes, as they have a high starch content that makes them ideal for mashing.
  • Make sure to peel and cut the potatoes into even-sized pieces so that they cook evenly.
  • Boil the potatoes in salted water until they are tender, but not overcooked. You should be able to easily pierce them with a fork.
  • Drain the potatoes well and then mash them until smooth. Do not over-mash them, as this will make them gluey.
  • Add the butter, milk, salt, and pepper to the mashed potatoes and stir until well combined.
  • Form the mashed potatoes into 8 equal-sized cakes. You can use a spoon or your hands to do this.
  • Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Once the oil is hot, add the mashed potato cakes and cook for 3-4 minutes per side, or until golden brown and crispy.
  • Serve the mashed potato cakes immediately with your favorite toppings, such as sour cream, chives, or salsa.
