Zucchini And Olive Mashed Potatoes Recipes

Steps:

• In a large saucepan, combine the potatoes, 1 teaspoon salt and cold water to cover. Bring to a boil over high heat. Lower the heat to maintain a simmer and cook until fork-tender, about 10 minutes. Drain the potatoes, reserving 1/2 cup of the cooking liquid. Return the potatoes to the pan. Shake the pan over medium heat for about a minute to dry the potatoes. Transfer the potatoes to a food mill, ricer or bowl.
• Add the oil and reserved cooking liquid to the saucepan and warm over medium heat. Remove the pan from the heat. Mash the potatoes through the food mill or ricer into the pan (or mash by hand in the bowl and transfer to the pan). Add the basil, parsley and tarragon and stir to combine. Season with salt and pepper. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• In a medium baking pan, toss together the zucchini, potatoes, red bell pepper, garlic, bread crumbs, and olive oil. Season with paprika, salt, and pepper.
• Bake 1 hour in the preheated oven, stirring occasionally, until potatoes are tender and lightly brown.

Steps:

• Place an oven rack in the center of the oven. Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Spray a baking sheet, liberally, with vegetable cooking spray. Set aside
• Lay the potatoes and zucchini on 2 kitchen towels. Bring the corners of the towels together and squeeze out the moisture from the vegetables. Place the vegetables in a large bowl. Add the garlic, chopped rosemary, 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese, bread crumbs, egg whites, salt, and pepper. Mix well until all ingredients are combined.
• In a 12-inch nonstick skillet, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat. Add the vegetable mixture to the pan. Using a spatula, press the mixture evenly into the pan. Drizzle the top with olive oil and sprinkle with the remaining 1 tablespoon Parmesan cheese. Cook for 8 minutes or until the edges of the mixture begin to brown. Slide the pancake, cooked side down, onto the prepared baking sheet. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes or until the top of the pancake starts to brown and the edges are crispy.
• In a small bowl, beat the mascarpone until smooth and season with salt and pepper, to taste.
• Cut the pancake into 1 1/2-inch squares and arrange on a serving platter. Pipe or spoon the seasoned mascarpone on top and garnish with a few fresh rosemary leaves.

Steps:

• Peel and quarter potatoes. In a kettle cover potatoes with salted cold water by 2 inches and simmer until just tender, about 25 minutes. Add tomatoes and simmer 5 minutes. Drain vegetables in a colander and transfer potatoes to a large bowl and tomatoes to a cutting board. With a potato masher mash potatoes and keep warm, covered. Cut tomatoes into thin julienne strips.
• Using largest holes of a 4-sided grater, grate zucchini. Pit olives and cut into thin julienne strips. Mince garlic. In a large nonstick skillet heat oil over moderately high heat until hot but not smoking and sauté garlic, stirring, until golden. Add tomatoes, zucchini, olives, and salt and pepper to taste and sauté, stirring, until zucchini is just tender, about 3 minutes.
• Stir zucchini mixture into potatoes until combined well and season with salt and pepper. Potatoes may be made 1 day ahead and chilled, covered. Reheat potatoes, covered, in a 350°F. oven about 30 minutes.

Steps:

• Cut the zucchinis in 1-inch chunks, put them in a pot, cover with water and boil over medium heat.
• Once the zucchinis are very tender (around 15 min), drain them and put them back in the pot. Return the pot to the heat and start mashing them (you can do that with a fork or a potato masher), some water will get out of them, boil them for few minutes until the water evaporates.
• Add the rest of the ingredients and stir.
• You can be creative and add other flavorings such as garlic or other spices.

Steps:

• Note -- Potatoes -- Well, you can use some leftover mashed potatoes, you can even buy deli mashed or even the frozen mashed. You could always use even Hungry Jack boxed for this although that would be my last choice.
• Personally I would peel a couple of russet potatoes, dice and put in a bowl with a teaspoon of water, cover with plastic wrap and microwave for 5 minutes until soft. Mash and add some milk/cream/broth and some butter and you have fresh potatoes. Just make 2 cups and set to the side in a medium size bowl.
• Zucchini -- Cut the ends off and cut lengthwise. Scoop out the seeds and discard them. Then scoop out some of the pulp, and keep about 8 tablespoons to mix with the potatoes. Make sure to scoop out enough pulp so you can stuff with the filling. If the the zucchini doesn't sit flat, just cut a little piece off the bottom so it can set flat. Add the 8 tablespoons of the zucchini pulp to the potatoes.
• Bacon -- In a small saute pan, cook the bacon until golden brown. Remove to a paper towel to drain and set to the side and then add to the potatoes and zucchini mix.
• Onion -- In the same pan with 1 teaspoon of the bacon drippings, cook the onion and garlic until lightly brown, just a couple of minutes. Remove and add that to the bowl with the potatoes, zucchini, and bacon.
• Stuffing -- Mix the the potatoes, zucchini, onion and bacon well, add any salt and pepper if necessary and add the parsley and mozzarella cheese. Stuff each zucchini half.
• Topping -- To seed the tomatoes, simple cut the plum tomatoes in half and then squeeze. Most of seeds should just fall out. Then chop. This way you get rid of the bitter seeds and most of the juice.
• Add the tomatoes, bread crumbs, parmesan cheese and olive oil in a small bowl until well combined. Top each zucchini with the breadcrumb, tomato and cheese mixture.
• Bake at 375 for 30-40 minutes until the zucchini is tender and the bread crumbs are golden brown.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• Spread potatoes, zucchini, and red onions in a 9x13-inch baking dish, or preferably a larger one. Use 2 baking dishes if necessary. Cover with pureed tomatoes, olive oil, parsley. Season with salt and freshly ground pepper. Toss all ingredients together so that the vegetables are evenly coated.
