Ham Potato Puffs Recipes

POTATO PUFF

Steps:

• Place potatoes in a large saucepan and cover with water. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and cook for 15-20 minutes or until tender. Drain and mash. , In a small bowl, whisk the egg yolks, milk, salt, basil and pepper. Gradually stir into mashed potatoes. Fold in 1 cup cheese. In a small bowl, beat egg whites on high speed until stiff peaks form; fold into potato mixture., Spoon into a greased 1-1/2-qt. baking dish. Sprinkle with remaining cheese. Bake, uncovered, at 350° for 40-45 minutes or until a thermometer reads 160°.

HAM POTATO PUFFS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
• Spray a 12 count muffin tin with cooking spray.
• Mold biscuits to the shape of each biscuit cup. You will need to snip a bit from each in order to get 12 altogether-the biscuits I buy only have 8 in them.
• In a large bowl, combine the ham, potatoes, 3/4 cup cheese, parsley, and garlic powder if using and green onion if using.
• Divide ham mixture between the 12 cups.
• Bake for about 25 minutes, or until done. (Use a toothpick to check if biscuit is done, then use a spoon to see if underside is brown enough, if not bake longer).
• Sprinkle with remaining 1/4 cup of cheese and continue baking until cheese on top melts. (I put a large cooking sheet underneath so that the melting cheese does not mess up my oven).
• Serve warm.
• Refrigerate leftovers, or freeze.

CREAMY HAM & POTATOES

Steps:

• In a greased 1-1/2-qt. slow cooker, layer the potatoes, cheese, ham and onion., In a small bowl, combine soup and milk; whisk in flour and pepper. Pour over potatoes. Cover and cook on low until potatoes are tender, 5-6 hours. Stir before serving.

HAM, CHEESE & POTATO PIE

Steps:

• Boil the potatoes in salted water for 8-10 mins, until tender but still firm. Leave to cool, then slice.
• Heat the oven to 200C/180C fan/ gas 6. Unroll the pastry with its baking parchment on a baking tray. Reserve 1 tbsp of the crème fraîche, then spread the rest over the pastry, leaving a 2cm border around the edge. Season. Layer the potatoes, ham and cheese over half of the pastry, seasoning the potatoes as you go.
• Fold over the other half of the pastry and use a fork to seal the edges. Trim with a knife for a neat finish - the pie should look like a big sausage roll. Mix a little water into the reserved crème fraîche, then brush all over the pastry. Make a few cuts along the length, then bake for 35-40 mins until golden. Leave to cool for 10 mins, then serve with a salad, if you like.
