Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Peel the potatoes and cut them into evenly sized chunks. This ensures they cook evenly.
- Place the potato chunks in a large pot and cover them with cold water. Add a pinch of salt to the water.
- Bring the pot of water to a boil over high heat. Once it starts boiling, reduce the heat to medium and let it simmer.
- Cook the potatoes for about 15-20 minutes, or until they are tender and can be easily pierced with a fork.
- Once the potatoes are cooked, drain them in a colander. Allow any excess water to evaporate for a minute or two.
- Return the drained potatoes to the pot or place them in a large mixing bowl.
- Use a potato masher or a ricer to mash the potatoes until they are smooth and free of lumps.
- Gradually add the milk to the mashed potatoes, stirring constantly to achieve a smooth, creamy consistency.
- Stir in the grated Parmesan cheese until fully combined. The cheese will melt into the potatoes, adding a rich, savory flavor.
- Taste the mash and season with salt and pepper as needed.
- Serve the Parmesan & Potato Mash hot, garnished with a sprinkle of extra Parmesan cheese or chopped fresh herbs if desired.
Tips:
- Choose starchy potatoes like Russet or Yukon Gold for a fluffier texture.
- Peel the potatoes for a smoother mash, or leave the skins on for extra fiber and texture.
- Cut the potatoes into even pieces to ensure they cook evenly.
- Start cooking the potatoes in cold water to avoid uneven cooking and to prevent the outside from becoming mushy before the inside is cooked.
- Warm the milk before adding it to the potatoes to keep the mash nice and hot.
- For a creamier texture, you can use a potato ricer or food mill instead of a traditional masher.
- Season with salt and pepper to taste and consider adding a touch of garlic or herbs for extra flavor.
Parmesan & potato mash brings a new depth of flavor to a beloved side dish. With its creamy texture and rich taste, it pairs beautifully with a variety of main courses, from roasted meats to grilled vegetables. Enjoy this easy-to-make, yet standout addition to your meal, and delight in every savory bite.
