Add a photoI had an "aha" food. Sometimes those aha moments are utter failures, sometimes they work out beautifully. This aha food moment was lovely, and easy, and elegant, and I urge you try it!
Ingredients
- 8-10 large Yukon Gold potatoes, washed, skins on
- 3/4 cup Ricotta (I used part skim, but whole would work too)
- 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 4-5 large garlic cloves, quartered
- 1 large lemon, in wedges
- 1 tbs whole peppercorns
- 3 dry bay leaves
- Salt
Directions
- -Bring salted water with lemon, peppercorns, bay leaves, and garlic, to boil.
- -Cut potatoes into 4-6 large chunks.
- -Boil potatoes until very soft, drain.
- -Discard the lemon, bay leaves, and as many peppercorn as you can.
- -Add potatoes, garlic, Parmesan, and ricotta to serving bowl and "smash" until combined and potatoes are slightly broken up but not smooth or completely "mashed." You can used a potato masher for this, but be careful to not over-do it. I used a beater attachment from a handheld mixer for the job.
- -Adjust seasoning and serve immediately.
