Mashed Potato Squash Recipes

Steps:

• Slice and steam or boil squash until tender. Pour off any remaining water.
• Mash the squash slightly. In a medium size pot place mashed squash, onion, butter, milk, salt and pepper. Mix well and heat over a medium flame. Serve warm.

Steps:

• In a large pot, combine potatoes and squash; cover with salted water by 1 inch. Bring to a boil; reduce heat, and simmer until potatoes and squash are easily pierced with the tip of a paring knife, about 20 minutes.
• Drain in a large colander; return potatoes and squash to the pot. Stir over medium heat until dry, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove from heat.
• In a small saucepan, melt butter over medium heat; add garlic, and cook until fragrant, about 2 minutes. Add half-and-half; bring to a simmer. Pour over potatoes and squash; season generously with salt and pepper. Mash with a potato masher until smooth and creamy. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Place potatoes into a large pot and cover with salted water; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until tender but not falling apart, 10 to 12 minutes. Drain and transfer to a large bowl.
• Add cooked squash, milk, butter, salt, and pepper; mix until combined. Serve hot.

Steps:

• Bring 1 inch of water to boil in large pot. Set steamer rack in pot. Place potatoes, squash and garlic on rack. Cover pot and steam vegetables until tender, adding more water to pot if necessary, about 15 minutes. Transfer vegetables to large bowl. Add margarine and mash vegetables until fairly smooth. Season to taste with nutmeg, salt and pepper. (Can be prepared 2 hours ahead. Let stand at room temperature. Reheat uncovered in 350°F oven for 30 minutes.)

Steps:

• In a large pot, cover potatoes, squash, and herbs with water. Season generously with salt. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer until tender, about 8 minutes. Reserve 1/2 cup cooking liquid, then drain and discard herbs.
• Return vegetables to pot and mash with butter until smooth. Add cooking liquid to adjust consistency. Adjust seasoning and top with nutmeg.

Steps:

• Cover potatoes with cold water, in a medium saucepan. Bring to a boil; add salt. Reduce heat to medium-high; cook potatoes until soft, about 25 minutes. In another medium saucepan, cover squash with cold water. Bring to a boil; add salt. Reduce heat to medium-high; cook until soft, 15 to 20 minutes. Drain potatoes and squash thoroughly.
• Force potatoes through a ricer into a bowl. In a separate bowl, mash squash with a potato masher; stir in potatoes.
• Bring 4 tablespoons butter and the cream to a simmer in a small saucepan over medium heat. Add 1/2 teaspoon salt and the nutmeg. Season with pepper. Stir cream mixture and 1/3 cup cheese into potato mixture. Season with salt and pepper, if desired. Spoon into a buttered 10-inch round baking dish.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Sprinkle mixture with crushed cookies and remaining cheese. Dot topping with remaining 2 tablespoons butter. Bake until topping is just browned, 20 to 30 minutes.

Steps:

• In a large bowl, combine potatoes, squash, onion, egg, flour, garlic salt, salt, and pepper. If the batter is too thin, add more flour; if too thick, add milk. Form batter into 3-inch patties.
• Cover the bottom of a large skillet with just enough oil to cover the bottom of the pan, and heat over medium-high heat. Place patties in hot oil, and cook until golden brown on each side; drain on paper towels.
