Chef's Menu Description

An enticing artisan creation, freshly prepared with vibrant seasoning and served with complementary accompaniments.

Ingredients

  • • 4 medium floury potatoes (peeled and cut into chunks (approx. 200g or 7oz each))
  • • 2 medium egg yolks
  • • 30 g Parmesan cheese (finely grated)
  • • 1/2 tsp garlic granules
  • • 2 tbsp fresh chives (finely chopped)
  • • salt and black pepper (to taste)

Preparation Steps

1
Phase 1

Line a large baking tray with a sheet of non-stick baking paper.

2
Phase 2

Place the potatoes in a medium saucepan of salted cold water. Partially cover with a lid and bring to the boil over a medium heat. Take care not to let the water boil over. Reduce the heat and simmer for 20 minutes, until tender.

3
Phase 3

Drain the potatoes well and return them to the saucepan off the heat. Cover with the lid and leave for a couple of minutes. Using a potato masher, mash the potatoes until smooth.

4
Phase 4

Stir in the egg yolks, Parmesan, garlic granules, chives and season with salt and black pepper if needed.

5
Phase 5

Place the mixture in a piping bag fitted with a 2 cm (3/4 inch) star nozzle. You may need to do this in 2 batches. Pipe 5 cm (2 inch) diameter swirls onto the lined baking tray, leaving gaps between each.

6
Phase 6

Place in the preheated oven and bake for 15 minutes until golden brown. Serve hot with a main course of your choice.
