Potato Purée With Hazelnut Oil image

Adapted from a recipe I found in the August/September 2008 issue of 'dish'. To make this recipe vegetarian, simply use vegetable stock in place of chicken stock. If you don't have a recipe for vegetable stock and would like to make some which basically uses all your vegetable peelings, you might like to try my Vegetable Stock #135453.

Time 25m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

750 g floury potatoes, peeled and cut into chunks
2 bay leaves
salt, to taste
4 tablespoons hazelnut oil
1/4 cup hot chicken stock
2 garlic cloves, finely chopped
2 tablespoons unsalted butter

Steps:

  • Cook the potatoes with the bay leaves in boiling, salted water until they are tender; drain the potatoes and remove the bay leaves; return the potatoes to the pan - taking care that they do not burn - over a low heat to remove excess moisture; push the potatoes through a potato ricer, mouli or sieve until the texture is very fine.
  • Return the potatoes to the pan over a medium heat and beat in 3 tablespoons of hazelnut oil; add the garlic to the stock and heat the chicken stock; add the hot chicken stock; and the butter and continue beating until the potatoes are smooth and light.
  • Season with salt, to taste; place in a serving bowl and drizzle with the remaining hazelnut oil.
