Directions
Olive Oil Mashed Potatoes, With only three ingredients salt, potatoes and extra virgin olive oil, and you are rewarded with a divinely creamy and buttery dish of mashed potatoes Yukon Gold potatoes have a naturally unique buttery flavor with no butter added! Ordinary salt is one of the ingredients here Use any salt you like, but (imo) great salt will give even more great flavor! I can’t wait to try this with different varieties of salt to discover the differences I think this recipe leaves lots of room for experimenting with flavored or infused extra virgin olive oil and various salts Experimenting is half the fun! Let me know what you use please I am so interested! I do not know much about Kosher or Jewish food and cooking but I think these might even work well there as well Discovered in Gourmet Magazine, Paris! 9/2008 , Nothing wrong with these but nothing spectacular either used some of the best Greek EVOO available (it is phenomenal!), which is why I wanted to try them for Easter dinner MEH They were just okay No reason not to make my regular ones with sour cream, chives, and bacon Thanks, though the whole reason I have been a member of Zaar all these years is to try new recipes!, I followed the recipe as directed and was very pleased with the result – they were creamy and delicious My hubby said he preferred my regular mashed potatoes I thought these were nice for a different approach to mashed potatoes Made for the Groovy GastroGnomes, Family Picks ZWT5

Steps

1
Done

Rinse and Cut Potatoes Into 2 Inch Chunks. Place in a Pot With Cold Water and Salt. I Like to Use Just Enough Water So the Potatoes Are Covered as More Flavor Is Retained. Cover and Cook Until Boiling. Tilt the Cover to Allow Steam to Escape and Reduce Heat Just to the Point Where Potatoes Are not Cooking Over. Cook Until Tender, About 12-15 Minutes. |
