Cooking Instructions

Hide images
step 1
Cut the Potatoes (5 lb) into 1 to 1 ½-inch disks, then in half.
step 2
In a stockpot add in potatoes then pour the Chicken Broth (4 cups) and Water (3 cups) until covered.
step 3
Turn on medium-high heat and cook for 25-30 minutes or until fork-tender. Stir every few minutes to ensure they cook evenly.
step 4
While the potatoes are cooking, heat the Whole Milk (2 1/2 cups). Add in the Garlic (2 cloves), Salt (to taste), Ground Black Pepper (to taste), 2-3 strips of peel from the Lemon (1), and Rosemary Leaves (4).
step 5
Just before the milk boils, remove from heat. Remove the lemon peel and rosemary.
step 6
Drain the potatoes. Then to dry them out, return them to the empty pot over medium heat. Stir every 30 seconds for 1-2 minutes, then remove from heat.
step 7
Using a food processor, process half of the potatoes at a time until JUST blended. Place in a dry pot and process the next half.
step 8
Once all the potatoes are all processed add in the Butter (1/3 cup). Mix until melted.
step 9
Pour in the milk mixture in batches and mix until your preferred texture.
step 10
Make the topping. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
step 11
Prepare the parmesan chips. On a parchment-lined baking sheet, place heaping tablespoons of Grated Parmesan Cheese (1 cup). Sprinkle it with Ground Black Pepper (to taste). Bake for 5 or until just beginning to brown.
step 12
In a bowl combine the Breadcrumbs (1 cup), Paprika (1/2 tsp), Salt (to taste), and Ground Black Pepper (to taste).
step 13
Sprinkle the mixture over the chips and place in the oven for an additional 3-4 minutes or until crumbs have soaked up the oil and have browned slightly.
step 14
Pour the cooked mixture into a bowl and using a wooden spoon smash the chips into bite-size pieces.
step 15
Serve the mashed potatoes warm with topping sprinkled over the top (or on the side if you have tentative guests.)
