Best 6 Potato Puree With Walnut Oil Recipes

POTATO PUREE

Steps:

• Fill a large pot with about 2 inches water. Set steamer basket in pot (water should not come through the holes). Bring to a boil, and then reduce to a rapid simmer.
• Add potatoes to steamer basket and steam until tender when pierced with a knife, 25 to 30 minutes.
• Meanwhile, melt the butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Simmer, whisking occasionally, until the butter is deep golden brown, 5 to 10 minutes. Place the thyme and garlic in a fine mesh sieve lined with cheesecloth. Strain the butter over the garlic and thyme into a medium bowl, add cream, and whisk to combine.
• Remove potatoes from steamer basket. Drain, and immediately press through a medium mesh sieve into a large bowl using a rubber spatula. Fold the cream mixture into the potatoes. Press mixture through a fine mesh sieve. Season with salt and pepper and serve immediately.

REALLY CREAMY POTATO PURéE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• On a parchment-lined sheet pan, arrange the potatoes in an even layer. Bake the potatoes until tender, about 45 minutes. Let the potatoes cool slightly until able to be handled but still hot. Peel the potatoes.
• Add one potato at a time to a ricer and rice the potatoes into a pot. Add the warm cream to the potatoes and some pieces of butter. Whisk until smooth. Continue to add most of the remaining butter, whisking piece by piece, reserving 1 to 2 tablespoons to finish. Season the potatoes with salt.
• Fill a small Dutch oven with hot water to warm it up. Dump the water and transfer the potatoes to the pot. Top with the remaining butter and garnish with chives.

PAN ROASTED SCALLOPS W SWEET POTATO PUREE AND WALNUT VINAIGRETTE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F.
• For the puree: Wash the yam and towel dry. Puncture it with a fork in several places, season it with salt and pepper, wrap it in a damp paper towel and microwave on high for approximately 3 minutes (until the center is cooked and soft). Cut the cooked yam in half long ways and scoop out the flesh. Puree in a food processor or with a blender. Season with butter, salt, and pepper to taste. Set aside.
• For the vinaigrette: Place walnuts on a baking sheet and cover with the granulated sugar. Bake at 350 for 7-8 minutes. Remove from oven and cool. Then, in a bowl, whisk together the walnut oil, 4 tsp of olive oil, vinegar, walnuts, and shallots. Season with salt and pepper and set aside.
• For the scallops: Season the scallops with salt and pepper on both sides. Heat a non-stick pan on high heat (7 out of 10 on my stove) with the remaining 1 tsp of olive oil. Sauté the scallops a few minutes on each side until golden brown. Total sauté time should be about 6 minutes.
• Once scallops are ready, quickly toss 2 tsps of the vinaigrette with the arugula leaves in a separate bowl.
• For assembly: Spread the puree onto each plate into a flat pancake (you can warm the puree in the microwave if it has become cold). Top the puree pancakes with a small pile of seasoned arugula leaves. Then place 3 sautéed scallops on top of the leaves. Finish each plate by drizzling the vinaigrette over the top, drizzling around the plates edge for a "gourmet" finish!

POTATO PURéE WITH HAZELNUT OIL

Steps:

• Cook the potatoes with the bay leaves in boiling, salted water until they are tender; drain the potatoes and remove the bay leaves; return the potatoes to the pan - taking care that they do not burn - over a low heat to remove excess moisture; push the potatoes through a potato ricer, mouli or sieve until the texture is very fine.
• Return the potatoes to the pan over a medium heat and beat in 3 tablespoons of hazelnut oil; add the garlic to the stock and heat the chicken stock; add the hot chicken stock; and the butter and continue beating until the potatoes are smooth and light.
• Season with salt, to taste; place in a serving bowl and drizzle with the remaining hazelnut oil.

CELERY ROOT, POTATO AND APPLE PURéE

Steps:

• Place the potatoes in one saucepan and the celery root and apples in another. Barely cover with water and add salt to taste to each, about 1/2 teaspoon. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat and simmer until tender, 15 to 20 minutes.
• Drain the potatoes, and return to the pot. Cover tightly, and allow to sit for five minutes to steam and dry out. Drain the celery root and apples through a strainer set over a bowl. Purée all of the produce using a food mill or a potato ricer. Stir together, and whisk in the milk or the broth until the mixture is fluffy. Add the butter or walnut oil to the hot purée, stir until the butter melts, and season to taste with salt and pepper.

POTATO PUREE WITH WALNUT OIL

Steps:

• Place potatoes in a large pot, and add enough cold water to cover by 2 inches. Add 1 teaspoon salt. Bring to a boil, and cook until tender, about 10 minutes. Drain, and pass hot potatoes through a ricer or a food mill into a large bowl. Cover to keep warm.
• Combine milk, butter, and 1 tablespoon salt in a saucepan over medium heat, and cook until steaming but not bubbling. Add hot-milk mixture to potatoes, and stir until smooth. Stir in oil. Season with pepper.
