Crispy Fried Mashed Potatoes Recipes

Steps:

• Heat some vegetable oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the flour to a small bowl and season with salt and pepper, to taste. Coat the sliced shallots in the seasoned flour. Drop the shallots in the hot oil ,a few at a time to avoid clumps, and fry until dark golden in color. Transfer the shallots to a paper towel lined dish and sprinkle with salt, to taste.
• In a large pot, add the potatoes and cover with water. Season the water with a heavy pinch of salt. Bring to a boil over medium heat, then lower the heat to a simmer. Cook the potatoes until fork tender, about 15 minutes. Immediately drain the potatoes and put them through a food mill, into a large bowl. If you don't have a food mill, you can hand mash or use a hand mixer, but be sure to not over whip if using an electric mixer.
• Slowly heat the cream in a small heavy-bottomed saucepan over low heat.
• Mix the hot cream into the potatoes and season with a little salt and pepper, to taste. Taste and adjust seasoning, if needed. Top the potatoes with crispy fried shallots and serve. Eat and enjoy!

Steps:

• Heat a heavy, thick frying pan until a droplet of water evaporates immediately if you flick it inches (DO NOT put any oil or fat of any sort in the pan, the potatoes WILL stick if you do).
• Tip in your mashed potatoes and spread out to cover the pan base.
• Cook on a medium heat and turn and shake occasionally.
• Turn over in parts (it isn't like an omelette, don't worry if it breaks).
• Keep frying until you have a solid crispy shell around it and a nice creamy center.
• Enjoy with a spicy tomato sauce or ketchup and mayonnaise.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 250 degrees F. Combine the potatoes, garlic, bay leaves and peppercorns in a large pot. Add 2 tablespoons salt and enough water to cover the potatoes by 1 inch. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to a simmer and cook until the potatoes are tender, about 15 minutes. Remove the potatoes to a paper towel?lined plate with a slotted spoon; gently blot dry (it?s OK if some of the potatoes crumble). Let cool completely.
• Set a wire rack on a rimmed baking sheet. Melt the schmaltz in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat (you should have about 2 inches in the pot) and heat until a deep-fry thermometer registers 350 degrees F. Working in batches, fry the potatoes until browned and crisp, 4 to 6 minutes. Remove to the rack with a slotted spoon and immediately sprinkle with salt. Keep warm in the oven between batches.
• Add the parsley and sage leaves to the hot schmaltz and fry a few seconds until just crisp. Remove to a paper towel?lined plate with a slotted spoon and sprinkle with salt. Top the potatoes with the fried herbs.

Steps:

• Mix mashed potatoes, egg, flour, and salt together in a bowl.
• Heat a thin layer of vegetable oil in a frying pan. Drop large spoonfuls of the potato mixture into the frying pan. Flatten into a patties as you flip; cook until browned on both sides, 6 to 7 minutes per cake. Repeat with remaining potato mixture.

Steps:

• Place the chicken in salted water for 15-20 minutes.
• Preheat oven to 425°.
• Place vegetable oil and margarine in shallow baking pan and set in oven to heat and melt.
• Combine flour and seasonings in a plastic bag.
• Shake pieces of chicken in flour mixture.
• Remove hot pan from oven and arrange chicken pieces on it, skin side down being sure not to crowd.
• Place pan in oven and bake 30 minutes.
• Turn chicken so that the skin side is up and continue to bake 20 to 30 minutes more until nicely browned and juices run clear.
• Remove to a platter and keep warm allowing to rest for at least 10 minutes.
• For gravy, scrape baking pan and place 3 tablespoons of the accumulated cooking fat and browned bits into a saucepan.
• Stir in 3 tablespoons of flour and cook 1-2 minutes until well combined.
• Stir in 2 cups chicken broth and continue cooking and whisking until gravy boils and thickens.
• Cook for about 2 minutes.
• Season with salt and pepper if necessary.

Steps:

• Place a steamer basket in a large pot filled with an inch of water and add the potatoes and salt. Cover and bring to a boil over medium heat. Steam until the potatoes are just tender when pierced with a paring knife, about 25 minutes. (Don't overcook: they won't hold together when flattened.) Remove the basket and let the potatoes cool enough to be handled.
• Gently squeeze the potatoes, one at a time, between your palms so that they flatten slightly but remain in one piece (some will break, but they can still be used). Pour 1/4 inch of oil into a medium frying pan set over medium-high heat. Add the potatoes in batches to avoid crowding, and fry on both sides until crisp and browned, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Drain on a plate lined with paper towels. Arrange on a platter and sprinkle with sea salt.

Steps:

• Place potatoes into a large pot and cover with salted water. Season water with garlic powder and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until tender, 15 to 20 minutes. Drain and transfer potatoes to a large skillet over medium-high heat.
• Mash potatoes in the hot skillet and add butter and garlic powder. Form mashed potatoes into a large patty and coat the edges with olive oil, allowing oil to pour under the patty. Cook until bottom is golden brown, 5 to 10 minutes. Break patty using a wooden spoon and fold crisp bottom through the potatoes. Repeat cooking the bottom and folding into the mashed potatoes.
