I've lost one of my recipes - mashed potato...

Well-known member
Sounds really silly, but in the "other" place I had posted it, I can't find it, and my Mastercook is fried, and I had no hard copy of it...

It was mash with cream cheese and sour cream and then baked, but it had some other stuff and I can't remember, mental block...

Anyone have it by any chance?

Or do we still have a link to the old forum, or is that gone now also?

Thanks

Sandra

 
Hi Sandra! I tried, but was unsuccessful in finding your recipe. Any chance you remember

the name of the recipe? I tried searching using your name, then tried baked mashed potato, and lastly tried mashed potatoes....

Sorry!

I have attached the link that I used to search the old board.

Regards,
Barb

Was this it Sandra?--REC: Double-Baked Potatoes with Mushrooms & Cheese...

DOUBLE-BAKED POTATOES WITH MUSHROOMS AND CHEESE

Recipe By :Bon Appétit/March 2002

Serving Size : 6

6 7-ounce Russet Potatoes -- scrubbed

5 tablespoons butter -- room temperature
12 ounces mushrooms -- coarsely chopped
2 large green onions -- chopped

3 ounces cream cheese -- room temperature (about 1/2 cup)
1/3 cup sour cream
1 1/4 cups coarsely grated white cheddar cheese

Preheat oven to 375°F. Pierce each potato in several places with fork. Place all potatoes directly on oven rack and bake until tender, about 1 hour.

Meanwhile, melt 1 tablespoon butter in heavy large skillet over medium heat. Add mushrooms; sauté until beginning to brown, stirring frequently, about 7 minutes. Add green onions; stir until wilted, about 1 minute. Set aside.

Using oven mitts as aid, cut each potato lengthwise in half. Scoop cooked potato flesh into large bowl, leaving skin intact. Add cream cheese, sour cream, and remaining 4 tablespoons butter and mash well. Mix in mushroom mixture and 1/2 cup cheddar cheese. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Mound mashed potatoes in potato skins. Sprinkle each half with 1 tablespoon cheese. Place on baking sheet. (Can be made 1 day ahead. Cover and refrigerate.)

Preheat oven to 375°F. Bake potatoes until heated through and cheese melts, about 25 minutes, or 35 minutes if potatoes have been refrigerated.

NOTES : Can be assembled and refrigerated one day before the final baking

Evelyn, this is a very compact style of scalloped or gratin potatoes, very easy to cut in squares and serve room temp or warm, they hold their shape very well... I even take them to BBQs... I tend to use more salt and pepper than the indicated, I salt and pepper between each layer of potatoes... Sainsbury's Gratin Potatoes Recipe By : Sainsbury's Serving Size : 30 3 kilos even sized waxy potatoes, sliced thinly 1 1/2 tablespoons fine sea salt 1 1/2 teaspoons ground white pepper 1/2 Cup butter 6 eggs 3 cups single cream 5 cloves garlic -- chopped freshly grated nutmeg Preheat oven to 200c - 400f. Wash and dry the potatoes and slice them thinly. Season well. Rub two large, preferably non-stick, roasting tins with a tablespoon each of the butter. Layer the potatoes in the tins, the top layer decoratively... Whisk the eggs, cream, nutmeg and garlic together and pour evenly over the seasoned potatoes. Dot butter over the top. Bake for 1 1/4 hours or until golden. Cool and refrigerate, reheat as needed.

Those be them!! Thanks very much Amy...

Thta must have taken you a while, I spent more than an hour searching an then I gave up, such a &*^$ search system over there now...

At least they are here and safe now... phew

Thank you!

 
Thank you everyone!

It's one of the simplest ways to make mash for Thanksgiving, it keeps and reheats very well...

When I think of all the stuff that's "lost" at that other place, it makes me sad... I don't ususally think about it, until I know that something I need is in there...

Thanks for looking!

 
Another version of the Mashed Potatoes

Here is a slightly more elaborate version of the mashed potatoes that Amy-CT sent. Incidentally, I have used these after about 1 week, so I have no doubt they would last for 2 weeks. Try it with the onions and/or mushrooms. I have made the casserole 1/2 w/onions and 1/2 without for those kids who may not be ready for the sauteed onions.
