BAKED MASHED POTATOES WITH PARMESAN



Baked Mashed Potatoes With Parmesan image

The combination here of baked and mashed potatoes can be made in advance and reheated at serving time. A food mill or old-fashioned food ricer yields the best texture, but you can also mash the potatoes in any way you are accustomed. I like to use Idaho potatoes because they are less moist than many other types.

BAKED MASHED POTATOES WITH PARMESAN CHEESE AND BREAD CRUMBS image

Categories     Potato

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 tablespoon butter
4 pounds russet potatoes, peeled, cut into 1-inch pieces
1 cup whole milk
1/2 cup (1 stick) butter, melted
1 1/2 cups grated mozzarella
1 cup freshly grated Parmesan
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons plain dry bread crumbs

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Coat a 13 by 9 by 2-inch baking dish with 1 tablespoon of butter and set aside. Cook the potatoes in a large pot of boiling salted water until they are very tender, about 15 minutes. Drain; return the potatoes to the same pot and mash well. Mix in the milk and melted butter. Mix in the mozzarella and 3/4 cup of the Parmesan. Season, to taste, with salt and pepper. Transfer the potatoes to the prepared baking dish.

Recipe can be prepared up to this point 6 hours ahead of time; cover and chill. Bake, uncovered, until the topping is golden brown, about 20 minutes.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients: Choose Yukon Gold or Russet potatoes for the best mashed potato texture. Use freshly grated Parmesan cheese for maximum flavor.
  • Don't overcook the potatoes: Cook the potatoes until they are tender but still hold their shape. Overcooked potatoes will become gluey and watery.
  • Drain the potatoes well: After cooking the potatoes, drain them thoroughly in a colander to remove excess water. This will help the potatoes absorb the butter and milk more easily.
  • Mash the potatoes until smooth: Use a potato ricer or a food mill to mash the potatoes until they are smooth and creamy. Lumpy potatoes will not produce a smooth and creamy mashed potato dish.
  • Season the potatoes generously: Don't be afraid to season the potatoes with salt, pepper, and garlic powder. This will help bring out the flavor of the potatoes.
  • Add the cheese and butter gradually: Add the Parmesan cheese and butter to the potatoes gradually, while stirring constantly. This will help prevent the cheese from clumping and the butter from separating.
  • Bake the potatoes until golden brown: Bake the mashed potatoes in a preheated oven until they are golden brown on top. This will give them a crispy and flavorful crust.

Conclusion:

Parmesan baked mashed potatoes are a delicious and versatile side dish that can be enjoyed with a variety of main courses. They are easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. Whether you like them cheesy, garlicky, or herb-infused, these mashed potatoes are sure to be a hit at your next gathering.
