Anchovy Mashed Potatoes Recipes

Steps:

• Put the potatoes in a large pot and cover with cold water. Generously salt the water and bring to a boil over high heat. Then lower the heat to medium and gently simmer until the potatoes are completely tender when pierced with the tip of a knife, about 30 minutes.
• Drain the potatoes well and return them to the pot. Place the pot over low heat and let any residual water steam off, about 2 minutes. Mash the potatoes well with a potato masher. Fold in the butter with a spatula until melted, and then fold in the cream. Season with salt and pepper.

Steps:

• Bring a pot of salted water to a boil. Add potatoes and cook until tender but still firm, about 15 minutes; drain.
• In a small saucepan heat butter and milk over low heat until butter is melted. Using a potato masher or electric beater, slowly blend milk mixture into potatoes until smooth and creamy. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

Steps:

• Peel potatoes and cut into 1-inch pieces.
• In a steamer set over boiling water steam potatoes, covered, until very tender, 15 to 20 minutes.
• In a large heavy saucepan cook onion in 4 tablespoons butter over moderately low heat, stirring, until softened. Add anchovies and cook, mashing them, until they dissolve, about 1 minute. Stir in milk, cream, and remaining 2 tablespoons butter and heat until hot but not boiling.
• Force potatoes through a ricer or food mill into pan and stir until smooth. Stir in chives and salt and pepper to taste.

Steps:

• In a medium pot, cover potatoes with at least 1 inch of water, and add a generous amount of salt. Bring to a simmer, then cook until potatoes are very soft, 25 to 30 minutes. You want to overcook them a little, so the insides stay creamy when they're roasted later.
• Drain the potatoes, and let them cool until you can handle them.
• Heat oven to 425 degrees. Use your hands to smash the potatoes to about 3/4-inch thick and transfer to a rimmed baking sheet. Toss with oil and a little salt. (The more generous you are with the oil, the crispier the potatoes will get.) Arrange potatoes in a single layer.
• Roast until dark golden and crisp, 40 to 50 minutes, flipping them over halfway through.
• Meanwhile, melt butter in a small pot over medium heat. Stir in anchovies and capers, and continue to cook until butter is brown and nutty. Stir in garlic and remove pan from heat.
• Pour brown butter all over the potatoes. Add tuna (or beans) to the pan, and toss well. Season with more salt, if needed, pepper and lemon juice to taste. Scatter herbs and onions over the top and serve.

Steps:

• Peel and cut the potatoes in 1/2-inch slices. Rinse under cold water and transfer to a large saucepan. Add cold water to cover the potatoes by an inch and add the salt. Set over medium-high heat, cover, and bring to a simmer. Remove the lid, lower the heat to medium, and cook for 15 to 20 minutes, until tender.
• While the potatoes cook, mash the anchovies, garlic, pepper, and 1 tablespoon of the olive oil with a mortar and pestle, or with a bowl and fork. Combine the anchovy mixture with the cream and warm up for a few seconds in the microwave (or in a small saucepan over medium heat) until hot but not boiling.
• Drain the potatoes and return to the pan. Add the anchovy mixture and the remaining 3 tablespoons olive oil. Set the pan over medium-low heat, and mash the potatoes with a fork or potato ricer, incorporating the other ingredients. Taste, adjust the seasoning, and keep warm until ready to serve.

Steps:

• Put the potatoes in a large saucepan and cover with water by 2 inches. Add 2 tablespoons of kosher salt, bring to a boil and cook until fork tender, about 25 minutes.
• While the potatoes are cooking, heat the milk in a small saucepan over high heat, bring to a boil, cover and remove from the heat. Keep warm until the potatoes finish cooking.
• Drain the potatoes in a colander and return them to the saucepan over low heat. Stir the potatoes for about a minute in the saucepan to evaporate any additional water.
• Put the potatoes into a ricer or food mill set over a large bowl. Stir in the butter then 1 1/2 cups to all of the warm milk until creamy. Stir in creme fraiche, mascarpone or pesto, if desired. Season with salt and pepper.
