Creamy Red Potato Delight
Indulge in a delectable dish featuring the wholesome goodness of baby red potatoes.
Here’s what you need:.
Ingredients:
1 ½ pounds baby red potatoes (approximately the size of cherry tomatoes)
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
¼ cup cream cheese, at room temperature
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
¼ cup whole milk
2 tablespoons finely chopped chives, plus more for serving (optional)
Sour cream, for serving
Caviar or trout roe, for an exquisite touch (optional).
Directions:
Preheat Oven:.
Preheat the oven to 425°F.
Prepare Potatoes:.
In a pot, cover the baby red potatoes with about 2 inches of cool water.
Bring to a boil, generously season with salt, and cook until the potatoes are easily pierced with the tip of a knife but still holding their shape (8 to 10 minutes).
Drain and let them cool until manageable.
Hollow and Trim:.
Trim and discard 1/4 inch from the top of each potato.
If needed, trim the bottoms flat to allow the potatoes to stand upright.
Carefully scoop out the flesh from the potatoes, leaving a 1/4 inch intact around the bottom and sides.
Place the hollowed potatoes on parchment-lined baking sheets.
Prepare the Filling:.
For a smooth texture, press the potato flesh through a ricer into a bowl.
Stir in cream cheese, melted butter, milk, and finely chopped chives until thoroughly combined.
Alternatively, if not using a ricer, mash the ingredients until smooth.
Season the mixture with salt and pepper to taste.
Fill and Bake:.
Transfer the potato mixture to a piping bag fitted with a plain tip or a resealable plastic bag with a corner snipped.
Pipe the mixture into the hollowed potatoes.
Bake until heated through and golden brown on top (20 to 22 minutes).
Serve with Elegance:.
Allow the stuffed potatoes to cool slightly.
Dollop with sour cream and top with caviar, trout roe, or additional chives.
Serve warm and savor the creamy, flavorful delight.
