Potato Filling Recipes

Steps:

• Place the potato cubes 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 25 minutes. Drain and allow to steam dry for a minute or two.
• Melt 1/2 cup of butter in a large skillet over medium heat, and cook and stir the onions and celery until they are reduced and browned, about 30 minutes.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease 2 glass baking dishes, each 9x13 inches.
• Place another 1/2 cup of butter into the work bowl of a stand mixer, and add the cooked potatoes. Start the mixer on Low setting. While mixer is running, pour in 1 cup of milk, and add 1 tablespoon of seasoned salt and 4 slices of torn bread. Mix those ingredients briefly into the mixture, and pour in 1/2 cup of milk and 4 more bread slices. Mix that addition, and then mix in 2 more bread slices.
• After the last 2 bread slices have been roughly incorporated, place another 1/2 cup of butter, 1 tablespoon of seasoned salt, all the onions, celery, and butter from the skillet, and 4 more slices of bread into the mixer bowl. Mix to incorporate, and finally mix in 2 to 4 additional torn bread slices. Allow the mixer to run until the dressing is the desired consistency.
• Place half the dressing into each prepared baking dish, and top the dressing with the remaining 1/2 cup of butter, cut into thin slices and scattered over the top. Sprinkle remaining 1 tablespoon of seasoned salt evenly over the top of the dishes. Cover the dishes with aluminum foil.
• Bake in the preheated oven until the dressing is browned, about 1 hour.

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add potatoes and cook until tender but still firm, about 15 minutes. Drain and mash.

• In a large bowl, mix together the potatoes, white bread, onion, celery, salt and pepper.
• Pour into prepared casserole dish and bake at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) for 1 hour.

Steps:

• 1. Peel and cut the potatoes into quarter pieces and place in a medium size kettle. Cover the potatoes with water and bring to a boil. Boil for 15 minutes or until soft.
• 2. In a separate pan place the chopped celery and onion with ½ cup butter and saute until the mixture starts to become soft (5 minutes on medium-high heat).
• 3. Chop the bread into small cubes and place into celery and onion mixture with two tablespoons of butter. Saute until the bread gets covered with the butter mixture (about 3 minutes).
• 4. Drain the water out of the potatoes. Mash the potatoes and add 4 tablespoons of butter. Mix milk and egg together and add to the potato mixture. Add celery mixture, parsley and flour. Add pepper and salt to taste, and mix well.
• 5. Put the potatoes into a well-greased casserole dish. Place the remaining butter on top of the potatoes. Bake at 350 for 40 minutes, or until the top of the casserole is brown.
• 6. At times gram would put crumbled smoked bacon in to change it up a bit.

Steps:

• Boil potatoes in salted water. Saute onion and celery in oil. Add salt and pepper to taste. Boil the giblets and neck in salted water to make stock.
• Moisten bread with milk. Smash the potatoes in a large bowl. (I use a small roasting pan, and then I roast the filling right in it.) Add all other ingredients including all spices and oil from saute. When adding the eggs, add a little of the hot mixture to the eggs first and beat well, so as to not scramble them when they go into the whole mix.
• Mix thoroughly. If it needs more moisture, add the stock, a little at a time. Taste to make sure enough spices are added. Add more salt and pepper and poultry seasoning, if needed.
• Bake at 350 degrees in a greased casserole dish or roasting pan until very hot and browned, usually one hour. Dot the top with pats of butter before putting into oven. I know some people chop the giblets and add to the filling, but I don't.
