Yield Makes about 24 hors d'oeuvres

Number Of Ingredients 6

1/2 pound red potatoes
6 Brussels sprouts
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
1/2 teaspoon salt, or to taste
freshly ground black pepper to taste
3 bacon slices, cooked until crisp and crumbled

Steps:

  • Peel potatoes. In a saucepan cover potatoes with cold water by 2 inches and simmer, covered, until very tender but not falling apart, about 20 minutes.
  • Preheat oven to 350°F.
  • While potatoes are cooking, trim Brussels sprouts. With a paring knife cut 4 firm cup-shaped leaves from stem end of each sprout and reserve. Quarter rest of each sprout and slice thin.
  • With a slotted spoon transfer potatoes to a colander and drain, reserving cooking water in pan, and transfer potatoes to a bowl. Add butter, salt, and pepper and with an electric mixer beat mixture until smooth.
  • Have ready a bowl of ice and cold water and bring reserved cooking water to boil. Gently stir in reserved sprout leaves and blanch 5 seconds. Working quickly, with a skimmer or slotted spoon transfer leaves to bowl of ice and cold water. Blanch shredded sprouts 30 seconds and drain in a sieve. Beat shredded sprouts into potato purée.
  • Transfer leaves to paper towels to drain upside down. Transfer purée to a pastry bag fitted with a 1/2-inch plain tip and pipe into upturned leave cups. Arrange filled leaf cups in a buttered shallow baking dish. Hors d'oeuvres may be prepared 3 hours ahead and chilled, covered. Sprinkle tops of hors d'oeuvres with bacon and heat in middle of oven 3 minutes, or until heated through.

This recipe is a bit bland. I added some extra salt and pepper to taste.

I made this dish for a vegetarian friend, so I omitted the bacon. It was still very good.

I didn't have any bacon on hand, so I used pancetta instead. It worked out great!

I had some trouble finding Brussels sprouts that were small enough, but I eventually found some that worked.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover mashed potatoes. I had some leftover from Thanksgiving dinner and this was the perfect way to use them up.
