Mashed Potatoes With Vegetables Recipes

Steps:

• Put the potatoes into a large pot, add the bay leaf, 2 tablespoons salt, and cover with cold water. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat and cook until the potatoes are tender, about 20 minutes. Drain them well and remove the bay leaf. Meanwhile, heat the cream and butter in a small saucepan. Put the potatoes through a ricer or food mill into a bowl. Add the hot cream and season with salt and pepper. Mix together with a spoon and add the chives.

Steps:

• Prepare vegetables, cutting potatoes into chunks, and dicing sweet potato, rutabaga, and turnip.
• Warm cream, milk, butter, nutmeg, and pepper in a small saucepan over low heat.
• Cook vegetables in a large pot with salt and enough cold water to cover by 1/2".
• Cover pot and bring to a boil over high heat.
• Reduce heat and simmer until vegetables are soft, but not falling apart, about 10 to12 minutes.
• Drain vegetables then return them to the pot.
• To evaporate any excess water, increase heat to high and cook vegetables briefly, just until they begin to stick slightly, 1 to 2 minutes.
• Stir them constantly to prevent scorching.
• Mash vegetables using a potato ricer, electric mixer, food mill, or by hand with a masher.
• Once mashed, gradually stir in the warm milk mixture until desired consistency is reached.
• Taste for seasoning and serve hot.

Steps:

• *NOTE: swedes are known in US as rutabagas. I've also used yams/sweet potatoes, turnips and fingerlings in this recipe. ~fyi~.
• Feel free to use any single vegetable or a mixture of your favorites. Cookgirl says that a mixture of root vegetables is the way to go!
• Peel the root vegetables then chop up into golf-ball sized pieces, place in salted boiling water and cook until very tender.
• Drain in a colander.
• Place the vegetables back in the pan and mash with a potato masher.
• You can mash them as smooth or as chunky as you like. Season with salt and pepper, then enrich the flavor with extra virgin oil or butter, or both, to taste. (I prefer using both olive oil and butter.).
• Jamie continues to say: once cooked, the mashed vegetables can be kept warm in a bowl covered with kitchen foil over simmering water. This is handy when cooking for a dinner party -- (especially when timing is of utmost importance.).

Steps:

• Place the potatoes, carrots, garlic and jalapeno in a large saucepan; cover with water. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and cook for 15-20 minutes or until tender. Drain., Mash vegetables with butter, salt and pepper; stir in corn and cheese.
