Basil-Parmesan Mashed Potatoes

Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method

-------- ------------ --------------------------------

Roasted Garlic -- (see recipe below)

10 potatoes -- peeled & coarsely chunked

salt

1 1/2 cups tightly packed fresh basil leaves

1/2 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese -- plus a little

extra for garnish

2 tablespoons olive oil -- (to 3 tbsp)

1 1/2 cups hot milk

salt & freshly ground pepper to taste

 

If you haven't already, roast the garlic. In a large pot, cover the

potatoes generously with salted water and bring to a boil. Boil the

potatoes for 10-12 minutes until tender. While the potatoes are

cooking, combine the basil and Parmesan cheese in the bowl of a food

processor and process until finely chopped. Set aside.

 

When the potatoes are tender, drain them (save the water for soup) and

transfer to a large bowl. Grasping the garlic at the bottom of the

head, squeeze the cloves out onto a plate and mash them with a fork.

Add the garlic, 2 tablespoons of olive oil, and most of the milk to the

potatoes and mash them. I like to start with a hand masher to work in

the milk, then switch to an electric mixer to fluff them up. Add more

of the milk, if you need it, and salt & pepper. Serve the potatoes hot,

garnished with a little extra Parmesan if you like.

Roasted Garlic

Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method

-------- ------------ --------------------------------

1 head garlic -- (the fresher the better)

olive oil

 

Preheat the oven to 400°F. Peel any loose papery skins off the garlic,

then slice off the top third of the head, exposing the individual

cloves. Put the garlic in a small baking dish and rub a little olive

oil over the exposed cloves. Put a teaspoon or so of water in the

baking dish. Cover tightly with foil and roast the garlic for about 40

minutes. When done, the cloves will be golden colored and feel soft

when pierced with the tip of a paring knife. Serve or use at any

temperature.

NOTES : Book Notes: Use roasted garlic in mashed potatoes and other

vegetable purees, on toast or bread, in tomato sauces, dips, and salad

dressings. Make Roasted Garlic while the oven is already in use so

you're not cooking this one tiny thing all alone.

Dairyless Mashed Potatoes

 

Recipe By :Feeding the Healthy Vegetarian Family, Ken Haedrich

Serving Size : 6 Preparation Time :0:00

Categories : Feeding the Healthy Veg Family

 

Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method

-------- ------------ --------------------------------

12 medium potatoes -- (about 10 cups) peeled & chunked

1 1/4 teaspoons salt

2 tablespoons olive oil

3/4 cup hot plain soy milk

1/2 cup potato water

freshly ground pepper

 

Put the potatoes in a large pot and cover with plenty of water Add 1

teaspoon of the salt and bring to a boil. Boil the potatoes, partially

covered, for 10-12 minutes, until tender. Drain, reserving the potato

water. What you don't use in the mashed potatoes can be saved for soup.

 

You can either mash the potatoes by hand or in an electric mixer. The

former will give you a slightly more textured version and the latter

will be fluffier. In any case, transfer the potatoes to a large bowl

and add the remaining salt, olive oil, heated soy milk, mashing them

with your tool of choice. Mash in the first 1/4 cup of potato water,

the gradually add as much of the remaining potato water as necessary to

make mashed potatoes moistened to your liking. Finally, blend in pepper

to taste and adjust the salt if necessary. Serve at once.
