how do i make cajun mashed potato?

Question

i like the one i had in popeye's

Answer 1

Just make basic mashed potatoes with lots of butter and make some gravy and add some Cajun seasoning to it. I like to add Emeril's Essence. Here's the recipe:

5 tablespoons sweet paprika
1/4 cup salt
1/4 cup garlic powder
2 tablespoons freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons onion powder
2 tablespoons cayenne pepper
2 tablespoons dried oregano
2 tablespoons dried thyme

Combine all the ingredients in a small mixing bowl and blend well. Store in an airtight container in your spice cabinet for up to 3 months.

I hope this works out for you. Happy cooking!

Answer 2

I don't know if you would call this Cajun or not and I've never eaten at a Popeye's. I put crab boil in the water when I boil the potatoes and then let them soak in the water for an additional 30 min. Drain water. Add as much butter or margarine as you like and just enough milk to make them creamy. Salt and Pepper to taste if desired. If you want hotter potatoes let the potatoes soak longer in the crab boil/water.
