Ingredients:
Instructions:
1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
2. Form Cheese Mounds: Using a tablespoon, place small mounds of grated Parmesan cheese onto the prepared baking sheet, spaced about 2 inches apart. Gently flatten each mound into a thin, even layer.
3. Bake: Place the baking sheet in the oven and bake for about 5-7 minutes, or until the cheese has melted and turns a light golden brown.
4. Cool: Remove from the oven and let the crisps cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes until they begin to harden. Then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
1. Boil the Potatoes: Peel and cut the potatoes into evenly sized chunks. Place the potato chunks in a large pot and cover them with cold water. Add a pinch of salt and bring the water to a boil over medium-high heat. Cook the potatoes until they are tender and easily pierced with a fork, about 15-20 minutes.
2. Drain and Mash: Drain the potatoes in a colander and return them to the pot. Allow any excess moisture to evaporate.
3. Add Butter and Cream: Add the butter to the hot potatoes and mash until smooth. Gradually pour in the heavy whipping cream, continuing to mash until the potatoes reach a creamy consistency.
4. Season: Stir in the ground nutmeg and chopped fresh parsley. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
5. Serve: Transfer the mashed potatoes to a serving bowl and top with the Parmesan crisps for added crunch and flavor.
- Serve your creamy mash with Parmesan crisps as a delightful side dish to complement any main course. Enjoy the blend of rich, buttery mashed potatoes with the crispy, salty Parmesan crisps for a delicious contrast in texture.
Tips:
- Use starchy potatoes such as Russets or Yukon Golds for the fluffiest mash.
- Ensure you grate the parmesan cheese finely so that it melts evenly and crisps up nicely in the oven.
- Warm the butter and heavy whipping cream before adding them to the mashed potatoes for a smoother texture.
- Taste the mashed potatoes before adding additional salt, as the parmesan crisps will add a salty element to the dish.
- Add a sprinkle of black pepper or garlic powder to the mash for an extra layer of flavor.
Congratulations, you've just created a marvelous mash with parmesan crisps! The creamy and flavorful mashed potatoes complemented by the crispy parmesan crisps make for a delectable and satisfying dish.
