Cheesy Mashed Potato |
I am a huge fan of Cheese - anything with large quantities of cheese in it stands little chance of survival when I am around. I especially like this Cheesy Mashed Potato recipe. If you’re a fan of cheese, like me, you might add an extra 1/4 a cup of cheddar cheese. Yum!
Ingredients:
10 - 12 small sized potatoes
1/4 cup of butter
3 tablespoon of cream
1/4 cup of milk
3 tablespoons of cream cheese
1/4 cup of cheddar cheese
2 Eggs, separated
2 tablespoons of grated parmesan cheese
1/2 tablespoon of baking powder
1/2 teaspoon of pepper
1 teaspoon of salt
Method:
1. Prick the potatoes all round with a fork and boil with their jackets left on
2. When the potatoes are cooked then cut and remove the meat, and thoroughly mash
3. Add the butter, baking powder, salt, pepper and cream, then beat until well blended.
4. Place the cream cheese, cheddar cheese and milk into a saucepan on the stove and heat.
5. Once cheese has melted gradually add the potato mixture 3-4 tablespoons at a time
6. To this mixture then add the egg yolks followed by beaten the egg whites
7. Pour into an ovenproof dish, sprinkle with Parmesan and place in a moderate oven for 15 minutes, or until golden brown on top
8. Deal out and Enjoy.
