SLOW COOKER MASHED RED POTATOES WITH PARMESAN



Slow Cooker Mashed Red Potatoes With Parmesan image

When there's no space on the stovetop to boil and mash potatoes, braise and mash them in a slow cooker - an easy and forgiving one-pot method. This rustic version has big flavors, thanks to the garlic that's cooked and smashed with the potatoes. The five garlic cloves lends a fairly assertive flavor, so decrease it to 2 or 3 cloves if you want a more subtle effect. You can leave the dish on warm for up to 3 hours after you mash the potatoes, just stir in the Parmesan and parsley right before serving.

Categories     vegetables, side dish

Time 4h

Yield 8 to 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

5 pounds red-skinned potatoes, cut into roughly 1-inch chunks
5 garlic cloves, peeled and smashed
1/2 cup olive oil
Juice of 1/2 lemon (2 tablespoons)
2 teaspoons kosher salt, plus more for seasoning
Freshly ground black pepper
8 ounces Parmigiano-Reggiano, grated (about 2 1/4 cups)
Leaves of 1 small bunch flat-leaf parsley

Steps:

  • Toss together the potatoes, garlic, olive oil, juice of 1/4 the lemon (about 1 tablespoon), salt and a generous amount of black pepper in a 5- to 8-quart slow cooker. Cover and cook on high, stirring once or twice to encourage even cooking, until the potatoes are very tender, about 4 hours.
  • Coarsely mash the potatoes and garlic with a potato masher. Just before serving, fold in the Parmesan, parsley and remaining 1 tablespoon lemon juice. Taste for seasoning and add more salt and pepper if necessary.

Tips:

  • Prick the sweet potatoes: Before cooking, prick the sweet potatoes all over with a fork. This will help them cook more quickly and evenly.
  • Cook the sweet potatoes until they are tender: The sweet potatoes should be cooked until they are tender when pierced with a fork. This usually takes about 1 hour on high or 2 hours on low.
  • Mash the sweet potatoes: Once the sweet potatoes are cooked, mash them with a fork or potato masher. You can also use a food processor to get a smoother texture.
  • Season the sweet potatoes: Add butter, milk, salt, and pepper to the mashed sweet potatoes. You can also add other seasonings, such as garlic powder, onion powder, or cayenne pepper.
  • Garnish the sweet potatoes: Before serving, garnish the mashed sweet potatoes with grated Parmesan cheese, chopped parsley, or crumbled bacon.
