Multicolored Martini Mashed Potatoes

Simply Kosher

Learn how to make multicolored martini mashed potatoes that look gourmet!

Multicolored Martini Mashed Potatoes

Prep. Time: 30 minutes
Cook Time: 30 minutes
Yield: 8 to 10 servings

Ingredients:
• 11 cups cold water
• 1½ teaspoons salt
• 5 lbs (or 17 medium) russet or Idaho potatoes, peeled and cut into 1-inch chunks
• 1 cup margarine, softened
• ½ cup non-dairy creamer
• 2–4 tablespoons Gold’s red horseradish, divided
• 2–4 tablespoons Gold’s wasabi sauce, divided
• 2–4 tablespoons Gold’s barbecue sauce, divided
• 2 shallots chopped, sautéed in olive oil (optional)

Preparation Instructions:
• Place water, salt and potatoes in a 6-quart soup pot, cover and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low and simmer, covered, for 25 to 30 minutes, or until potatoes are tender.
• Drain potatoes thoroughly and return them to the pot or a large bowl.
• Using a wire masher or fork, mash potatoes until desired texture is reached.
• Mix in margarine and non-dairy creamer until well combined.
• Separate into 4 equal batches and add 1 Gold’s topping to each of 3 batches, leaving one batch plain (the exact measurement is 1 tablespoon of topping per 1 cup/serving of mashed potatoes). Mix to blend.
• Spoon into martini glasses for a colorful and gorgeous presentation. Top each with a drizzle of remaining topping.
• Sauté chopped shallots in olive oil over medium heat until golden and crispy, and top plain mashed potatoes with a few spoonfuls, if desired.

mashed potatoes
I think your ideas are very creative and sweet.
May I suggest coconut milk and or olive oil for a pareve alternative? I am not sure if the flavor would be as good as margarine- but my husband and I (he is a naturopath) try to eat as healthfully as possible. I will G-d willing try Mexican salad this Shabbat. Keep those great ideas coming!
P.S. I work with many raw salads etc.
Used to work with macrobiotic dinners.
Happy to share.

RE: non-dairy creamer
I asked my wife what she does, and here are some of her tips:
a. You can just pour in a drop of oil, and make sure to mash the potatoes with some of the water you used to cook them in. This serves to keep the potatoes creamy and moist.
b. If you cannot find non-dairy creamer, soymilk works as well.

non-dairy creamer
I love mashed potatoes but I never make them because I cannot find a non-dairy cream or milk and we only eat them with meat...any suggestions? The only thing I found was a soy milk that some people say is pareve but it is processed on dairy equipment so I cannot trust it is pareve really...thoughts???
