Garlic and Parmesan mashed potato bites
Number of portions: 12 cups
Ingredients: – 3 big russet potatoes, peeled and cut into small pieces – 4 garlic cloves, finely chopped
– 1/2 cup of full-fat milk
– 1/4 cup of butter without salt – 1 cup of grated parmesan cheese – 1 big egg
– Add salt and pepper as desired. – Use cooking spray or butter to grease. – Sprinkle chopped fresh parsley on top for decoration.
Instructions
1. Heat your oven to 375°F and lightly grease a 12-cup muffin tray with cooking spray or butter.
Put the diced potatoes in a big pot and cover them with water. Heat until the water boils and cook until the potatoes are soft, for around 15-20 minutes.
3. Drain the potatoes thoroughly and put them back in the pot. Put the chopped garlic, milk, and butter together and mix until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
Mix the parmesan cheese into the mixture and add salt and pepper to taste. Allow the mixture to cool a bit, then mix in the egg well.
Put the mashed potatoes into the muffin tin, pressing down to fill each cup completely.
Cook in the oven that has been preheated for 20-25 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and crispy.
Allow the cups to cool for a short time before taking them out of the container. Sprinkle with chopped parsley and serve while hot.
Different options and recommendations: – To make a lighter version, use skim milk and a low-fat butter alternative.
– You can include crumbled bacon or finely chopped fresh herbs such as chives or rosemary in the mixture to add more taste.
– If you are cooking for people who are very selective with food, consider preparing a portion without garlic or using a less strong cheese. The idea is to customize the dish to your liking!
I’m sorry, but I need a text to simplify. Could you please provide me with a sentence or a paragraph to work on? You can prepare these cups in advance and heat them in the oven later. They are great for preparing meals ahead of time or for when you have guests coming over. You can try different kinds of cheese like strong cheddar or Gouda to give a special touch to this beloved family dish.
There’s nothing like a classic mashed potato to make you feel good inside. However, these mashed potato cups with garlic and parmesan cheese bring a special twist that could become a favorite in your family recipes. Enjoy your meals and may they always bring you happiness and comfort!
