Aligot Style Potatoes With Roasted Garlic Recipes

Steps:

• Peel and cut the potatoes into cubes. Boil them in salted water for approximately 15 minutes or fork tender. Once potatoes have cooked, drain the water.
• In a large bowl add the garlic, sour cream, butter, and Parmesan to the potatoes, and mash until desired consistency. Add salt and pepper to taste.
• To serve, add as a side to any dish.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Cut off the top third of the head of garlic to expose the cloves. (Reserve the top part for another use.) Put the bulb on a 12-by-12-inch piece of aluminum foil, drizzle with the olive oil and season with a pinch of salt and several grinds of black pepper. Wrap the foil up and over the garlic, leaving some space between the foil and the exposed garlic cloves and seal the edges. Bake until the garlic cloves are deep golden brown and very tender, 45 to 60 minutes. Cool slightly, then squeeze out the tender cloves (see Cook's Note).
• Meanwhile, add the potatoes and bay leaf to a large pot and fill with enough cold water to cover by 1 inch. Season generously with salt. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, then lower to medium-low and simmer until fork-tender, about 12 minutes. Drain well and discard the bay leaf. Reserve the empty pot.
• Pass the potatoes and roasted garlic through a potato ricer or food mill back into the pot. They should be very finely mashed and smooth. Place over medium-low heat and stir in the heavy cream and butter with a wooden spoon until creamy and combined. Add half the Gruyere and mozzarella, stirring vigorously until the cheese is completely melted and incorporated. Add the remaining Gruyere and mozzarella and continue to stir until all the cheese is melted and incorporated and the potatoes are smooth and stretchy. (The mixture should stretch like melted mozzarella cheese.)
• Taste and adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper. Transfer to a serving bowl, top with chopped chives and serve immediately.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Rub potato skins with oil, sprinkle with salt and pepper and rub potatoes to coat. Bake potatoes in preheated oven 50-60 minutes, or until soft. Do not wrap potatoes in foil. Remove potatoes from oven and slice skin off the tops. Scoop potato flesh into a large bowl, reserving intact skins. To potatoes, add all but two tablespoons of cheese plus egg, butter, roasted garlic and liquid smoke if using. Mash potatoes while gradually adding milk. Spoon mixture into skins and top with remaining cheese. Bake for an additional 15 minutes or until golden brown.

Steps:

• In a large pot over medium-high heat, add the potatoes, garlic, and cover with cold water. Add a big pinch of salt.
• Bring to a boil, reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer until the potatoes are fork-tender, about 20 minutes.
• Drain potatoes and garlic in a colander and press them through the holes of the colander with a metal spoon back into the pot. Alternatively, use a potato ricer.
• Add the butter and one clove of garlic to the potatoes and stir over medium-low heat with a rubber spatula until melted and smooth.
• Pour in the heavy cream and stir again until combined.
• Gradually add in the cheese, stirring between each addition, until completely melted.
• Continue stirring the potatoes until smooth, thick, and elastic.
• Begin to stretch the potatoes upwards with the spatula. If the mixture is breaking, add in more cheese. If the mixture is too thick add in more cream.
• Serve immediately as a side with roasted veggies or a meat of choice, or alone with fresh chopped garlic!
• Enjoy!
