Recipe comes from the December 2005 edition of Canadian Living Magazine. Ingredients:
10 baking potatoes (about 6 lbs) |
6 garlic cloves |
1 cup sour cream |
10 ounces soft fresh goat cheese (1 log) |
1/2 cup butter, softened |
1 teaspoon salt |
1/2 teaspoon pepper |
1/2 cup fresh chives, finely chopped (optional) |
Directions:
1. Peel potatoes and cut in half crosswise.
2. In a large pot of boiling salted water, cover and cook potatoes and garlic until tender, 25-30 minutes.
3. Drain and return to pot; dry over low heat, shaking pan, about 1 minute.
4. Press through ricer - you could mash but it will not be as smooth or creamy.
5. Optional - warm goat cheese, and sour cream in the microwave on low for 2 minutes.
6. Mix sour cream, goat cheese, butter, salt and pepper into potatoes and stir smooth.
7. Add chives if using.
8. Put into a casserole dish or 13x9 baking dish.
9. If making ahead - up to 2 days - cool and refrigerate.
10. Cover and bake at 400F for 30 minutes, or microwave on high for 10-12 minutes. If cold add 10 minutes to baking time in the oven.
