Potato Web

Difficulty:
1/5

Ingredients

  • 1 cup silky smooth mash potato
  • ¼ cup Parmesan cheese
  • 1 egg white

Directions

  1. Boil your potatoes and put them through a ricer to get the ultimate mashed potato with no lumps.
  2. Mix all ingredients together. You may wish to add fresh chopped chives, saffron, grated zest of lemon or cracked black pepper. Using either a stencil to create interesting shapes or spreading the mixture thinly free hand on a silpath and baking at 325 for 8 to 10 minutes, until lightly browned and beginning to crisp. If you do not have a silpath, parchment paper will also work. You can shape the web into almost any shape in which to hold a salad or use as a simple garnish for meat, fish and poultry.
  3. To create a beautiful yellow colour to your web, add a small bit of saffron tea to your mashed potatoes.
