A new spin on mashers

Postby DATsBBQ » Tue Dec 22, 2009 9:55 am

Did this yesterday, measurements are approximate. Simple, but oh so good 8)

4 portly Yukon Gold Spuds
about 4 oz of aged Irish White Cheddar that I shredded
1/2 tsp white pepper
a tad more than half a pint of table cream
1/4 tsp of Allspice

Boil the spuds till nearly done, slip the skins. Put taters into a bowl and slowing add the cream while beating with mixer. then add cheese, white pepper and Allspice and mix to thoroughly incorporate. I then put the bowl on top of a pan with a couple inches of water in it to make a double boiler, cover and set temp so water in the pan is at strong simmer on a back burner. I left them like that for the better part of an hour whilst I did other things. The double boiler will prevent the spuds from burning. Plated with a pat of butter on top. They tasted like the ones you get as a side in a high dollar eatery. Not a low fat thing so if you're watching the fat content better pass on this one.

While I thought the steak and lobster would be the hit, everyone couldn't get enough of the spuds. That said, all plates came back to the kitchen empty.

Sounds like something really good.
Dave, was the double boiler used to finish cooking or just to keep warm? CF :D

There was some carry over cooking but I didn't want the cheddar to get cool and get stringy. I had a tight fitting lid on it too.
