Bacon Horseradish Potatoes Recipes

HORSERADISH-BACON TWICE-BAKED POTATOES

Steps:

• Position racks in the middle and upper third of the oven; preheat to 400 degrees F. Scrub the potatoes and dry well. Bake directly on the middle oven rack until easily pierced with a knife, 45 to 50 minutes. Remove from the oven; let cool 5 minutes.
• One at a time, hold each potato with a kitchen towel and halve lengthwise. Scoop the flesh into a large bowl, leaving a 1/4-inch-thick shell. Discard 2 of the potato skins. Mash the flesh with 6 tablespoons butter and 3/4 cup sour cream until smooth. Stir in the chives, parsley and 2 to 3 tablespoons horseradish; season with salt and pepper. Melt the remaining 3 tablespoons butter; brush the potato skins with 1 tablespoon melted butter and season the insides with salt and pepper. Set on a baking sheet.
• Mound the filling into the potato skins. Return to the oven on the top rack and bake until the filling starts browning and the skins are crisp, 18 to 20 minutes. Remove from the oven and drizzle with the remaining 2 tablespoons melted butter.
• Combine the remaining 1/4 cup sour cream and 2 tablespoons horseradish in a small bowl. Top the potatoes with the horseradish cream, bacon and more chives.

BACON-HORSERADISH SMASHED POTATOES

Steps:

• Put the potatoes, garlic and thyme in a medium saucepan, cover with cold water by about an inch and season generously with salt. Bring to a simmer over medium heat and cook until the potatoes are very tender and a thin knife will easily pierce through the center of the potatoes, about 20 minutes. Drain and discard the thyme.
• Heat the milk in a microwave-safe bowl or measuring cup in the microwave until hot, about 1 minute. Using a potato masher or large fork and adding the hot milk gradually, smash the potatoes and garlic into a chunky puree. Stir in the butter, horseradish, sour cream and bacon; season with salt and pepper.

DOUBLE BAKED HORSERADISH POTATOES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Prick the surface of the potatoes a few times with a fork then rub potatoes with oil, place on a baking sheet and bake in the oven for about 1 1/2 hours, or until you can poke a thin bladed knife into them. Remove them from the oven and let rest 10 minutes, or until cool enough to handle.
• Slice the potatoes in half vertically and carefully scrape the flesh into a medium bowl, reserving the best 4 skins. Add the butter, milk, cream and horseradish and mash until smooth, if the mixture is too dry add more milk. Season well with salt and pepper to taste. Fill each of the 4 skins with the mashed potato mixture. Place the filled potatoes on a baking sheet and return to the oven, bake until lightly golden brown, about 8 to 10 minutes. Remove from the oven and top with a dollop of sour cream, a tablespoon of caviar and sprinkle with chives.
