Answer 1

Garlic Potato Recipe
Potatoes - 4 to 6 medium size
Garlic - 4 to 6 cloves (thinly slice)
4 tablespoons of low fat butter
4 tablespoons of low fat yogurt
Finely diced chives - 2 tablespoon
Salt - 1teaspoon

Preheat the oven to 400F.
Wash, and then slice each potato at 1/2 cm intervals. Cut about 3/4 way through (make sure not all the way). So the potatoes have many slits in them.
Place the garlic slices in the slits. Then bake for 60 to 75 minutes - until soft.
Mix the low fat yogurt with low fat butter, diced chives, and slat. Mix well. Use this as the topping for the potatoes.
Amazingly, this delicious potato recipe has less than 4 grams of fat

Is It a Baked Potato or Potato Salad?
2 1/2 lbs potatoes, any variety you like
1 medium onion, medium dice
1 cup fresh parsley leaves, loosely packed then roughly chopped
1 cup sour cream
1 cup mayonnaise
Wash (DO NOT peel) your potatoes and cut them into approximately 1-inch thick wheels.
Cover wheels in a pot of water and boil until the potatoes are tender.
Drain and cool potatoes in a large mixing bowl.
When potatoes have cooled, combine all remaining ingredients in the bowl with the potatoes.
**If you want to season the entire batch before serving, consider including any combination of the following before mixing all the ingredients together - salt, pepper, lemon pepper, garlic powder. And remember a little bit of seasoning in the mix tends to go further than seasoning added to each serving.
If you are lucky enough, you will get everything evenly combined and still have some chunks of potato in the mix. If you don't, it still tastes great.
Cover and chill for at least two hours before serving. This can be made a day or two in advance of serving.
Prep time includes cooling the potatoes and chilling the salad. Cook time is split between cooking to potatoes and mixing the salad

Answer 4

Here is something really good:

Boil your potatoes until they are soft but not mushy. While they are boiling, take ground sausage and cook it thoroughly, draining well afterwards. Mix the sausage with a large scoop of sour cream and a handful of shredded cheddar cheese and then set it aside.

When your potatoes are done, drain them and rinse them, cutting them in half and scooping out the insides. Transfer the scooped out insides to the sausage mixture and mix well. Then refill each 1/2 potato shell with the sausage mixture, and place inside a foil-lined baking pan and bake on 350 for 10 minutes.

Serve with sour cream.

Answer 5

Potato Dumplings:

6 to 8 baking potatoes (medium size)
6 to 8 baking potatoes (medium size)
1/4 c all-purpose flour
2 eggs
1 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. ground nutmeg
2 Tbsp. margarine
3 slices bread, cut into cubes


Directions:

Cook potatoes in water until tender. Cover and refrigerate 12 to 24 hours. Peel and finely chop cooked potatoes or mash thoroughly. In a medium bowl, combine potatoes, flour, eggs, salt and nutmeg to form a firm, but light paste. If mixture is too moist, add flour as needed. This will keep the dumplings from falling apart during cooking. Melt margarine in large skillet. Add bread cubes and sauté until golden brown. Working with floured hands, form potato paste into a roll about 2 1/2 inches in diameter. Cut roll in 8 to 10 pieces. Form pieces into dumplings enclosing a few sautéed bread cubes in center of each dumpling. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add dumplings, one at a time, and simmer about 15 minutes. Dumplings are done when floating on top. Remove dumplings with slotted spoon drain well.

Answer 6

Crispy Potato Horseradish Cakes Recipe courtesy Michael Symon
Show: Melting Pot
Episode: Eastern European - Euro Market





1 onion, grated
3 baking potatoes, like russets peeled and grated
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour, plus more, as needed
2 large eggs
3 tablespoons finely grated fresh horseradish
1/2 teaspoon lemon zest
1/4 cup chopped fresh dill
3/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper, freshly ground
6 tablespoon olive oil
2 tablespoon unsalted butter
1 cup creme fraiche or sour cream
Fresh dill sprigs, for garnish

In a bowl, combine the onion and potato. Dust with the flour and mix to disperse it. Add the eggs, horseradish, lemon zest, fresh dill, salt, and pepper, and mix until well combined.
In a large non-stick saute pan, heat the olive oil and butter over medium-high heat. Once the bubbles from the butter subside, spoon 3 heaping tablespoons of the potato mixture into the saute pan. Repeat, making 8 to 12 pancakes. Cook pancakes about 4 minutes on each side, assuring that both sides are well browned and the potato is cooked through. Reduce the heat of the pan if the potato cakes are browning too quickly in order to make sure the inside is cooked completely. Remove the cakes to a paper towel lined plate as they finish, and season with salt while hot. You can cover them with foil and keep in a 200 degrees F oven to stay warm until ready to serve.
To serve, transfer potato cakes to a platter and dollop each one with creme fraiche. Top with a sprig of dill.

Answer 8

Have you ever made twice baked? Bake potatoes and cut them lengthwise. Scoop out potatoes into a bowl and mix with chopped green onions, salt, butter, and sour cream. Put filling back in skins and sprinkle with cheese and bacon bits. Bake until the cheese melts. You can throw in any ingredients you like. My family loves twice baked potatoes and we always make extra to reheat the next day.

Answer 9

Hasselback Potatoes - Recipe Zarr
6-8 servings 1¼ hours 30 min prep

4 medium yukon gold potatoes
1/2 cup seasoned bread crumbs (I use Parmesan flavored)
1/4 cup parmesan cheese or asiago cheese, grated
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 teaspoon paprika
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup butter, melted (divided)

Preheat oven to 450 degrees F.
Spray a rectangular glass baking dish with cooking spray.
Prepare potatoes, peel and cut in half length wise and fan.
( leave potatoes with peels and whole)
To fan potatoes, place cut side down and slice in 1/8 inch slices.
*Tip*Place a chopstick on each side to prevent slicing all the way through. (I use a kabob squewer stick - cutting through potatoe to the stick at intervals and then puling stick out)
Place breadcrumbs, grated cheese, olive oil, paprika, and salt in a food processor and process until mixed.
Place potatoes in rectangular baking dish and open up fans.
Drizzle with 1/3 cup butter, set aside remaining butter.
Place breadcrumb mixture in a plate and with fans slightly open dip tops of potatoes in bread crumb mixture and return to baking dish.
Cover dish with foil and bake for 30 minutes, remove foil and drizzle with remaining butter and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes.
May drizzle with additional butter if needed.

This recipe creates a lovely potatoe dish for company. It takes a little work, but it is worthwhile. Enjoy!
