Baked Ham Chive Mashed Potato Cakes Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Peel potatoes (if desired) and place in large sauce pot and cover with cold water by 1 inch. Bring to a boil and reduce to simmer, cooking for 30-35 minutes or until potatoes are tender-soft.
• Meanwhile, in skillet over medium-high heat, melt 2 tablespoons butter and cook onion for 10-12 minutes or until soft and translucent. Drain potatoes thoroughly and place in large bowl with remaining butter, salt and pepper. With mixer or potato masher, blend potatoes and butter until mixed while retaining a slightly chunky texture. Fold in cooked onion, eggs, ham and chives.
• Line baking sheet with parchment or lightly grease. In ring mold or biscuit cutter, sprinkle bottom interior with bread crumbs and fill mold with potato mixture until top is slightly rounded, topping again with bread crumbs. Remove ring and repeat with remaining potato mixture, spacing cakes about 1 inch apart. Bake for 20-30 minutes or until tops are golden brown and beginning to crisp. Top with Parmesan cheese and serve hot.

Steps:

• 1. Cook potatoes in plenty of salted water until cooked through. Meanwhile gently fry onion until translucent and set aside. 2. In a large bowl, combine potatoes, eggs, pancetta, onions, butter and chives. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Adjust the texture with a bit of milk if necessary. 3. Preheat your oven to 400°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. 4. On the baking sheet, using a ring mold, sprinkle a layer of breadcrumbs, then scoop potato mixture to shape the cakes-about 1 1/2 inch thick. Press down slightly with the back of a spatula and finish with another thin layer of breadcrumbs. Remove the ring mold and repeat the process. 5. Bake in the oven at 400°F (190°C) for 10 minutes, or until golden and serve warm. Notes: You can add grated Parmesan cheese on top of the potato cakes.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Spray a 6-cup muffin pan with nonstick spray, making sure the spray coats all sides of the cup.
• Cut ham in half and place 1 piece in each cup, pressing it down so it forms a basket in the cup. Sprinkle a small amount of Gruyere cheese on the bottom of the ham.
• Crack eggs into a a measuring cup. Add milk, basil, chives, salt, and pepper. Whisk until combined.
• Pour egg mixture evenly into each muffin cup.
• Bake in the preheated oven until set, 20 to 25 minutes. Let cool for a few minutes before using a spoon to slide the cups out onto a plate.
