Garlic Mashed Potato Knishes Recipes

GARLIC MASHED POTATO KNISHES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
• First, make your dough. Beat 1 egg and 1/2 cup schmaltz, and then add in sifted flour, baking powder and salt and knead until you have a dough that is not sticky. If you add too much flour in, just add a little water to make your perfect dough. Cover and refrigerate for at least an hour.
• Now, roast your garlic by making a packet with garlic coves and a drizzle of schmaltz or olive oil. Roast in a 400 degree oven until garlic is soft, about 40 minutes. Then lower oven to 375 degrees F.
• Meanwhile, caramelize your onions by cooking in 1 Tablespoon schmaltz or olive oil and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a large saute pan over low until caramel, about 40 minutes.
• Wash and peel your potatoes and cut them into even pieces. Then cover with cold water in a large saucepan and bring to a boil. Cook until you can stick a knife into the potatoes and it comes out without resistance. Then strain water, cool a little, and mix with 1/4 cup schmaltz, scallions, roasted garlic, caramelized onions, eggs, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper.
• Ah beautiful schmaltz. Now let's assemble! There are many ways to form knishes but I like individual round ones. Roll out your dough until it is as thin as you can get it. Then cut out 3 inch rounds (using a cookie cutter or wine glass works great!). Put a tablespoon of filling in each circle and scrunch up to make a knish.
• Then wash with egg and bake at 375 degrees F until golden brown, about 25 minutes.

• Peel and dice potatoes, making sure all are relatively the same size. Place in a large saucepan, add the salt, and cover with water. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat and then reduce heat to maintain a rolling boil. Cook until potatoes fall apart when poked with a fork.
• Heat the half-and-half and the garlic in a medium saucepan over medium heat until simmering. Remove from heat and set aside.
• Remove the potatoes from the heat and drain off the water. Mash and add the garlic-cream mixture and Parmesan; stir to combine. Let stand for 5 minutes so that mixture thickens and then serve.

Steps:

• In a small saucepan, bring the garlic and oil to a boil, then turn the heat to low and cook uncovered for 5 minutes, or until the garlic is lightly browned. Turn off the heat and set aside. The garlic will continue to cook in the oil.
• Meanwhile, place the potatoes in a large pot of salted water, bring to a boil, and cook for 15 to 20 minutes, until the potatoes are very tender. With a slotted spoon, remove the potatoes from the water, reserving the cooking water, and remove the garlic from the oil, reserving the oil.
• Process the potatoes and garlic through a food mill fitted with the medium disk. Add the reserved olive oil, 2 teaspoons of salt, the pepper, cream, and 3/4 cup of the cooking water to the potatoes and mix with a wooden spoon. Add more cooking water, if necessary, until the potatoes are creamy but still firm. Season, to taste, and serve hot.
