SIDE DISH FVCC CHEF HOWARD KARP YUKON MASHED
POTATOES
$35/INDIVIDUAL
THIS THANKSGIVING, I challenge you to think outside the box. Add a twist to your mashed potatoes by trying this recipe, which is my favorite mashed potato recipe to serve up for the upcoming holiday. The celery root and parsnip gives the potatoes an intriguing new taste. Adding mascar- pone cheese provides a divine creamy texture that will make your guests ask for seconds ... maybe even thirds.
Yield: 10 servings
You will need
3 1/4 pounds of Yukon potatoes, peeled and cut into two-inch pieces
1 1/4 pound celery root (celeriac), peeled and cut into half-inch pieces
1/4 pound parsnip, peeled and cut into half-inch pieces
3 whole garlic cloves, peeled
1 tablespoon garlic, minced
8 ounces mascarpone cheese, room
temperature
3/4 cup of unsalted stick butter Salt
White pepper
Nutmeg
Place potatoes, celery root, parsnip and whole garlic cloves in a large pot. Add enough cold water to cover vegeta- bles. Bring to a boil. Partially cover and boil until vegetables are tender for about 40 minutes. Drain.
Transfer vegetables to a sheet pan and place into a preheated 300 degree oven to dehydrate for about four minutes. Remove from oven. Using a food mill, pass the vegetables through, and then pass once more through a ne mess.
As a nishing touch, add the puree of vegetables to a pot. Using a wooden spoon, whip puree while adding minced garlic, mascarpone and butter until the potatoes appear shiny, smooth , creamy and starchless. Finish it o by season- ing with salt, white pepper and a touch of nutmeg.
