Mashed Saffron Potatoes Recipes

SAFFRON-CORN MASHED POTATOES

Steps:

• Prepare perfect mashed potatoes (but do not add milk). Meanwhile, heat oil in heavy large skillet over medium-high heat. Add onion and sauté for 2 minutes. Add fresh corn kernels garlic. Cook until corn is soft, stirring often, about 4 minutes. Add milk and saffron. Bring just to boil; remove from heat, cover, and let steep 10 minutes. Stir into potatoes. Season with salt.

SAFFRON MASHED POTATOES

Steps:

• In a large pot, cover the potato chunks with a few inches of water, then add ½ tbsp salt. Bring to a boil on the stovetop. Let the potatoes simmer for about 20-25 minutes till soft.
• While potatoes are cooking, grind the saffron threads to powder with a mortar and pestle. Add 1 tbsp of hot water to the ground saffron and let it soak for a few minutes.When the potatoes are done cooking, drain them thoroughly and return them to the hot pot on the stovetop. The heat source should be turned off; the residual heat from the pot will "dry out" the potatoes a bit, allowing them to soak up more of the good stuff later.
• Meanwhile, in a small saucepan, melt 2 tbsp non-hydrogenated margarine over medium heat. Whisk in flour or potato starch to form a thick paste.
• Whisk in the non-dairy milk, coconut milk, crushed garlic, ½ tsp salt and the saffron water. Heat the mixture over medium, whisking frequently, till it boils and thickens.
• Pour the creamy saffron sauce over the cooked potato chunks, then mash with a potato masher till smooth. If using a potato ricer, push the cooked potatoes through the ricer first, then stir in the sauce. If the potatoes need moisture, add more non-dairy milk as you mash. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Don't skimp on the salt-- I usually use around 1 1/4 teaspoons or more. The salt really enhances the flavor of the saffron. Use white pepper if you want a more uniform golden look to the potatoes (without any black flecks).
• Serve immediately.

SAFFRON MASHED POTATOES RECIPE - (4.4/5)

Steps:

• Place potatoes in a medium-large saucepan, then cover with cold water by 1 inch and add 1 teaspoon salt. Bring to a boil over high heat, about 15 minutes. Let cook until fork tender, 10-15 minutes more. Meanwhile, in a small lidded saucepan over low-medium heat, heat saffron, garlic and milk just until edges of milk start to bubble, about 10 minutes. Be careful not to let milk scald. Remove from heat, cover saucepan and let flavors infuse for 10 minutes. Add olive oil to milk infusion and gently reheat over low heat. Drain and mash potatoes. Fit an electric mixer with a paddle attachment and use it to whip mashed potatoes. With the motor running on low-medium speed, pour oil-milk infusion into potatoes in a slow, steady stream until velvety smooth, about 1 minute. Stir in remaining salt and Tabasco to taste. Ideally, allow purée to sit in a warm place to allow saffron flavor to fully develop, about 30 minutes.
