I usually make potato soup or potato pancakes out of leftover potatoes.
But last night I was making a roasted pork tenderloin with thyme, honey and OJ
and I decided to make the meal a little royal- so I made Duchess potatoes.
I used about 1 1/2 cups of mashed potatoes,
Heated up 3/4 cup of cream,
melted 1/4 cup butter in the cream,
whisked one whole egg into the mix
and seasoned with nutmeg and s+p to taste.
Spooned mixture into an icing bag- added a star tip and squeezed onto baking pan.
Then I baked in a preheated oven at 375 degrees F-
They were delicious.
Add roasted vegetables and pork,
and a pineapple slice and blackberry fruit salad,
and you have a really great evening meal!
That looks like a great ‘ keep the cold out’ supper Heidi, absolutely delicious !
It did and it was!
More snow today- and no sign of Spring anywhere in the near future.
Sigh.
Heidi, I love when you and Jo blog serendipitously! 🙂 What beautiful looking potatoes – the rest of the meal looks fabulous as well. Very warming for your cold weather! xx
It is always a happy surprise when I see a very similar post – although I hadn’t put mine up- just had the pictures and the intent when I read hers.
It really was a delicious meal- I decided I owed Frank something special after deserting him for a week! 🙂
Lovely Heidi 🙂
Now please, can you send me some of your snow? Summer is dragging on here, and I’d rather like to wear a scarf or two.
I’d love to send this snow far far away, Brydie!
It was snowing again this morning and I’m SO done with it. I wore a sweater and shivered my way as I went- but I didn’t care. I am not wearing a heavy coat to cook in when I finally get to the store or where ever! I WANT SPRING ! Sorry your Summer won’t quit, either.
Weather is so confused!
