Potato And Corn Mash Pioneer Woman Cooks Style Recipe 45

BROWN BUTTER MASHED POTATOES

Steps:

• Peel the potatoes, rinse in cold water and cut into fourths. Place the potatoes in a large pot and cover with water. Bring to a boil and cook until fork-tender, 20 to 25 minutes.
• Meanwhile, add the butter to a saucepan over medium heat. Allow the butter to brown, 2 to 3 minutes, being careful not to burn it. Swirl the pan as you go, stopping when the solids turn medium to deep golden brown.
• Drain the potatoes, then return them to the pot. With the burner on low heat, mash the potatoes with a potato masher; the more steam that's released while you mash, the better. Mash for about 5 minutes. Turn off the burner.
• Add the cream cheese, half-and-half, cream, some salt and pepper and three-quarters of the brown butter to the pot and stir to combine. If the mixture needs thinning, add some milk. Check the seasonings, adding salt and pepper to taste. Drizzle the remaining brown butter over the top. Sprinkle with fresh parsley.

SLOW COOKER MASHED POTATOES

Steps:

• Combine potatoes, chicken broth (see note below), butter, and salt in a slow cooker. Stir together, then cover and cook on high for 3-4 hours, until potatoes are tender and fluffy-looking. Mash with a potato masher or fork (or put them through a potato ricer, for super smooth potatoes), then add sour cream, chives or scallions, heavy cream or milk, or whatever ingredients you'd like. Season to taste, then serve and enjoy!Note: I used unsalted chicken broth. If you use full salt, reduce the salt to 1 teaspoon, then season to taste at the end. If you wish to skip the chicken broth, substitute water instead.

CORN MASHED POTATOES

Steps:

• Place the potatoes in a large pot, cover with cold water and season with salt. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat to medium and simmer until tender, about 20 minutes. Drain well, then cool slightly. Return the potatoes to the pot and, using a masher, mash the potatoes.
• Meanwhile, melt the butter in medium, heavy skillet over medium heat. Add the onions and saute until translucent, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic and corn and saute about 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Add the cream and cook over medium-low heat for 3 minutes longer.
• Add the sauteed corn to the mashed potatoes and stir to combine until the liquid is fully absorbed. Season with salt and pepper. Serve immediately.

CREAMY CORN AND POTATO MASH

Steps:

• If using frozen corn, prepare as per packet instructions.
• Cook the potato in a pot of lightly salted boiling water until tender, drain and mash with the cream.
• While the potato is cooking, melt the butter in a small pan over low heat. Add the onion and cook, stirring, for about five-ten minutes, until very soft but not browned.
• Blend the cooked corn with the cooked onion in a food processor until smooth, adding salt and pepper to taste. Stir into the mashed potato and cream, checking the seasoning for taste.

POTATO AND CORN MASH, PIONEER WOMAN COOK'S STYLE RECIPE - (4/5)

Steps:

• You can easily adjust the quantities to feed any number of people, though. Boil the potatoes for about 25 to 30 minutes. Until very tender. Drain, then put back into the pot and leave on low heat; this allows extra water to evaporate so you don't get soupy and watery potatoes. Heat 1 tbsp oil in a skillet and cook the onions, bell pepper and garlic, over low heat until they're soft and sweet. This will take about 15 minutes. Add a 1 to 2 tablespoons butter or cream cheese, or spoon in some sour cream, and add 2 cans of the corn. Start mashing. You don't want to completely mash the corn; you just want to break it up a little so it blends in with the potatoes. I like my mashed potatoes rather thick, so I added 1/2 a cup of hot milk or heavy cream. Feel free to add an additional splash of milk. Or cream. Or cream cheese. Keep mashing until the potatoes are nice and creamy. Add the rest of the corn and the onion/pepper mix and stir it in. Season with a generous amount of black pepper and some salt-or Lawry's seasoned salt. Put the corn mash back on the stove for a few moments to let the mash heat through. Garnish with fresh chives and it's ready to serve and enjoy.
