BROCCOLI SMASHED POTATOES

12 Best Foods Cookbook by Dana Jacobi

Even youngsters will love this dish, an unexpected way to enjoy a whole cup of broccoli.

Makes 4 servings


• 1 pound Yukon Gold or other yelow-fleshed potatoes, peeled
• 4 cups medium broccoli florets
• 1 leek, white part only, thinly sliced
• 1/2  cup low-fat (1%) milk
• Salt and freshly ground black pepper
• 4 teaspoons unsalted butter
• 1/2 teaspoon ground mace


1. Place the potatoes in a deep saucepan and cover with cold water to a depth of 2" Cook uncovered over high heat until the potatoes can be easily pierced with a knife, about 20 minutes.

2. While the potatoes cook, steam the broccoli and leek until the broccoli is very soft, about 15 minutes. Drain in a colander.

3. Drain the potatoes and place them in a deep bowl. Using a sturdy fork, mash the potatoes into roughly 1" chunks. Add the broccoli and leek, mashing until only small lumps of the broccoli remain. Add the milk, 2 tablespoons at a time, mashing until the texture is pleasing to you. Season to taste with salt and pepper.

4. In a small saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat until it is golden brown, 1 to 2 minutes, taking care it does not burn. Stir in the mace.

5. To serve, spoon the smashed potatoes into a serving bowl. With the back of the spoon, smooth the top, leaving several shallow indentations. Drizzle the butter, letting it pool in the hollows. Serve immediately.
