Mashed potatoes with walnut oil offer a delightful twist on the classic comfort food. The addition of walnut oil adds a rich and nutty flavor, elevating the dish to a gourmet level. This recipe is perfect for a cozy family dinner or as a side for special occasions.
Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Begin by peeling the potatoes and cutting them into quarters to ensure even cooking.
- Place the potatoes in a large pot and cover them with cold water. Add a pinch of salt to the water to season the potatoes while they cook.
- Bring the pot to a boil over high heat. Once boiling, reduce the heat to medium and let the potatoes simmer for 15-20 minutes, or until they are tender and easily pierced with a fork.
- Drain the cooked potatoes in a colander. Let them sit for a few moments to steam dry, which will help prevent the mashed potatoes from being watery.
- Return the dry potatoes to the pot or place them in a large mixing bowl. Using a potato masher or a fork, start mashing the potatoes until they reach your desired consistency. For a smoother texture, you can use a potato ricer.
- Add the softened butter to the mashed potatoes and mix well until the butter is fully melted and incorporated.
- Stir in the chicken gravy and light sour cream. Continue to mix until all ingredients are well combined.
- Taste the mashed potatoes and season with salt and pepper as needed. Mix again to ensure the seasoning is evenly distributed.
- Transfer the mashed potatoes to a serving dish.
- If desired, drizzle a small amount of walnut oil over the top for an extra layer of flavor.
- Serve the mashed potatoes hot, as a delightful side dish to your favorite main courses.
Tips:
- For extra smooth potatoes, consider using a potato ricer instead of a traditional masher.
- Warm your butter and sour cream slightly before mixing them into the potatoes to ensure everything blends together more easily.
- To enhance the nutty flavor, you can toast the walnut oil slightly before adding it to the mashed potatoes.
- If you prefer a lighter version, substitute the butter with more light sour cream or use a low-fat alternative.
This mashed potato recipe with walnut oil is a deliciously creamy and rich dish that brings a unique flavor to your table. Whether you're preparing a holiday feast or a simple weeknight dinner, this recipe is sure to impress your guests and become a new favorite.
