Italian Mashed Potatoes Recipes

Steps:

• In a 5-quart saucepan, combine the potatoes, 2 tablespoons butter, the garlic, 1 teaspoon salt and enough cold water to cover. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Reduce the heat to a simmer and cook until the potatoes are tender, 15 to 20 minutes. Drain in a colander and remove the garlic cloves. Return the potatoes to the pan and, using a potato masher, mash the potatoes until smooth.
• Add the mascarpone, Parmesan, chicken broth, the remaining 4 tablespoons butter, 2 teaspoons salt and 1 teaspoon pepper to the potatoes. Stir over low heat until smooth and warmed through. Season with salt and pepper. Transfer to a bowl and serve.

Steps:

• If you happen to use larger potatoes for the double batch, halve the large potatoes because the small ones for the regualr batch can be left whole.
• Place all the potatoes in a deep pot and cover with water.
• Place a lid on the potatoes and bring it to a boil.
• Once it starts to boil, uncover and cook until tender (about twelve to fifteen minutes).
• Then drain potatoes and put them back into the hot pot.
• Add the butter, the seasoning package, milk and cheese. It really depends on how creamy and cheesy you like your potatoes when deciding how much you want to add of the milk and cheese.
• Smash the potatoes until they are the desired texture.
• Add the amount of salt and pepper to taste you like and enjoy.

Steps:

• Boil potatoes with garlic until tender and drain.
• Mash potatoes and garlic together and add 6 tablespoons of the butter and then add the milk.
• Mash until potatoes are smooth.
• Add salt and pepper to taste.
• Add mozzarella and Parmesan cheeses.
• Stir to blend.
• Use 1 tablespoon of the remaining butter to grease the bottom and sides of a casserole dish.
• Coat the bottom and sides with breadcrumbs.
• Spoon potato mixture into the dish and dot the top with the remaining tablespoon of butter.
• Bake at 350° for about 15 minutes or until the top is golden brown.

Steps:

• Place the potatoes into a large pot and cover with salted water. Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until tender, about 20 minutes. Drain and allow to steam dry for a minute or two. Return the drained potatoes to the pot.
• Pour the vegetable broth, thyme, rosemary, oregano, basil, onion powder, parsley, sage, and garlic over the potatoes; mash with a potato masher.
