Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Time 1h15m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 to 4 heads garlic, depending on size
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 tablespoons olive oil
3 onions, sliced
2 pounds Idaho or Yukon gold potatoes, unpeeled
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 cup whole milk
1 stick (8 tablespoons) unsalted butter

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Slice the heads of garlic in half crosswise and drizzle with the oil. Wrap the garlic in foil and roast until creamy, about 1 hour. When cool enough to handle, squeeze the cloves into a small bowl and mash lightly with a fork.
  • Heat the oil in a large skillet set over medium heat. Add the onions and cook, stirring occasionally and lowering the heat if the onions begin to burn, until golden, about 30 minutes.
  • Put the potatoes in a medium pot, cover with cold water and add 2 tablespoons salt. Bring just to a simmer and simmer the potatoes, uncovered, until tender, about 45 minutes. Drain.
  • Peel the potatoes and return them to the pot (if desired, pass them through a ricer or food mill after peeling). Add the onions. Mash the potatoes and onions with the milk and butter using a fork or potato masher. Stir in the roasted garlic and 2 teaspoons salt; season with pepper.

4 pounds Yukon gold potatoes
2 pounds parsnips
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 cup heavy cream

MASHED POTATOES AND PARSNIPS



Mashed Potatoes and Parsnips image

Provided by Andrew Weil, M.D.

Categories     Potato     Side     Christmas     Thanksgiving     St. Patrick's Day     Dinner     Parsnip     Parsley     Simmer     Boil     Butter

Number Of Ingredients 8

8 medium red or white new potatoes, washed and cubed.
4 parsnips, peeled and cubed
1 cup milk
3 tablespoons butter
1 tablespoon chopped parsley
Dash cayenne pepper
Several grindings of black pepper
1 teaspoon salt

Steps:

  • Put the potatoes and parsnips in a large pot with water, making sure that the water completely covers them. Bring to a boil, lower the heat to medium, then cover and simmer for 20-30 minutes, stirring occasionally with a spoon. Test the tenderness of the potatoes with a fork; they should pierce easily and be tender, yet firm. Drain any remaining liquid and mash the potatoes with a potato masher until there are no visible lumps. Add the milk and butter and continue to mash until the potatoes are smooth and creamy. Stir in the parsley, cayenne pepper, black pepper, and salt, and beat thoroughly with a wooden spoon until all the seasonings are completely mixed in. Cover and serve warm.

Tips:

  • Select the right potatoes: Use starchy potatoes like Yukon Gold or Russet potatoes. These varieties will mash smoothly and create a creamy texture.
  • Cook the parsnips and onions separately: This allows you to control the texture and flavor of each vegetable.
  • Caramelize the onions slowly: Take your time to caramelize the onions until they are a deep golden brown. This will add a rich, sweet flavor to the dish.
  • Mash the potatoes until smooth: Use a potato ricer or a food mill to achieve a smooth and creamy texture.
  • Combine the ingredients gently: Fold the parsnips, caramelized onions, and butter into the mashed potatoes until just combined. Overmixing will result in a gluey texture.
  • Season to taste: Add salt, pepper, and nutmeg to taste. You can also add a splash of milk or cream for a richer flavor.

Conclusion:

Mashed potatoes with parsnips and caramelized onions is a delicious and elegant side dish that is perfect for any occasion.
