Number Of Ingredients 7

3 lbs Yukon gold potatoes, peeled and cut into 2″ pieces
1/3 cup unsalted butter, room temp and cut into pieces
1/2 cup heavy cream, warmed
1/3 cup goat cheese, room temperature
1 tablespoon fresh thyme, finely chopped
1 tsp garlic powder
salt and pepper, to taste

Steps:

  • Place potato chunks in a large pot of cold, salted water. Over medium heat, bring the water to a boil over medium-high heat, and then reduce heat to a simmer. Cook until potatoes are easily piercable with a fork, about 10 to 15 minutes. Drain, and return cooked potatoes to the pot over low heat. Cook until the edges of the potato turn white.
  • Using a potato masher, handheld mixer, or ricer, mash and stir for 1 to 2 minutes, until potatoes are smooth and any remaining moisture has evaporated. Remove from heat.
  • Meanwhile, heat cream in a small saucepan over medium heat.
  • Add butter to potatoes and stir, then slowly add the hot cream and goat cheese to potatoes.
  • Stir until smooth. Add thyme and season with salt and pepper, to taste. Add more cream or butter as needed to achieve the desired consistency. Garnish with fresh thyme and goat cheese crumbles and serve immediately.

Goat Cheese Mashed Potatoes with Leeks and Chives image

Categories     Garlic     Potato     Side     Bake     Kid-Friendly     Goat Cheese     Leek     Gourmet     Small Plates

Yield Serves 4 to 6

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 1/2 pounds russet (baking) potatoes
1 1/2 cups thinly sliced well-washed white and pale green part of leek
3/4 cup finely chopped onion
2 garlic cloves, minced
3 tablespoons unsalted butter
2/3 cup milk
1 1/2 cups crumbled mild goat cheese such as Montrachet (about 6 ounces)
1/4 cup minced fresh chives

Steps:

  • In a saucepan combine the potatoes, peeled and cut into 1-inch pieces, with enough cold water to cover them by 1 inch and simmer them for 10 to 15 minutes, or until they are tender. While the potatoes are cooking, in a heavy skillet cook the leek, the onion, and the garlic in 2 tablespoons of the butter, covered, over moderate heat, stirring occasionally, for 10 minutes, or until the vegetables are soft. Drain the potatoes, return them to the pan, and steam them over moderate heat, shaking the pan, for 30 seconds, or until any excess liquid is evaporated. Force the potatoes through a ricer or the medium disk of a food mill into a bowl and stir in the milk, the remaining 1 tablespoon butter, the leek mixture, half the goat cheese, the chives, and salt and pepper to taste. Spoon the mixture into a buttered 2-quart baking dish, sprinkle the remaining goat cheese over the top, and bake the mixture in the middle of a preheated 350°F. oven for 20 minutes.

Tips:

  • For the best results, use Yukon Gold potatoes, as they are known for their smooth and creamy texture.
  • Do not overcook the potatoes, as this will make them mushy. To check if they are done, pierce them with a fork; they should be tender but still slightly firm.
  • While the potatoes are cooking, prepare the other ingredients. Chop the parsley, chives, and green onions, and crumble the goat cheese. You can also grate the Parmesan cheese if you prefer.
  • Once the potatoes are cooked, drain them well and return them to the pot. Mash them until smooth, then add the butter, milk, and seasonings. Stir until well combined.
  • Gently fold in the goat cheese, parsley, chives, and green onions. Serve immediately, topped with the Parmesan cheese.

Conclusion:

These peppered goat cheese mashed potatoes are a delicious and easy-to-make side dish that is perfect for any occasion. They are creamy and flavorful, with a hint of spice from the black pepper. The goat cheese adds a tangy richness that takes these mashed potatoes to the next level. Serve them with your favorite main course, and enjoy!
