Duchess Potatoes image

Duchess Potatoes are little fancy bundles of mashed potatoes that are piped, brushed with butter and baked till the edges are crispy and browned. They are perfect for small dinner parties yet easy enough for a weeknight meal. These perfectly proportioned spuds keep that one quest from hogging all the mashed potatoes. I love to...

Categories     Potatoes

Time 1h

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 lb russet potatoes peeled and chopped into 1 inch cubes
1 lb yukon gold potatoes peeled and chopped into 1 inch cubes
1 1/2 tsp sea salt
2 Tbsp butter melted
3 Tbsp heavy cream
1/4 tsp fresh ground black pepper
1/2 c freshly grated parmesan (plus more for garnish)
1/2 c grated white cheddar
3 egg yolks
1 egg
1 Tbsp cool water
chopped chives

Steps:

  • 1. Place potatoes in a large pot and fill with cool water. Add 1 teaspoon salt. Bring to a boil over medium heat. Reduce and simmer until very tender. The potatoes should fall apart when pierced with a fork or knife. Drain very well. Place drained potatoes back on the stove over medium low heat for 2-3 minutes to finish cooking any moisture out. Stir often so they don't burn to the bottom of the pan.
  • 2. Mash potatoes very well with a handheld potato masher. Add 1/2 teaspoon salt, butter, cream, pepper, Parmesan and cheddar; stirring well to combine. Let mixture cool for 5-7 minutes.
  • 3. Quickly stir in the egg yolks mixing just until combined. Don't overdo it.
  • 4. Scoop the mashed potatoes into a large piping bag fitted with a large star tip. Pipe 12 (about 1/2 cup) mounds of the mixture onto large baking sheet covered with parchment paper leaving room between them.
  • 5. Refrigerate for 30 minutes.
  • 6. Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Beat egg and water until combined. Lightly brush over the potatoes. Bake for 18-20 minutes or until golden brown. Garnish with grated parmesan and chives.

I was disappointed with these duchess potatoes. They were not as fluffy as I expected and they browned too much.

I was a bit hesitant to try this recipe because I'm not a very experienced cook. But I'm so glad I did! These duchess potatoes were surprisingly easy to make and they turned out beautifully. They were the perfect side dish for my roast chicken.

I've tried many duchess potato recipes, but this one is by far the best. The potatoes were fluffy and light, and the piped shapes held their form perfectly. I will definitely be making these again.
