Love your attitude of not being frustrated even when what seems to be the same exact recipe goes somewhat off rail, rather thinking about how to salvage it, what the cause was and how things can be changed. Replicating online recipes often don't turn out the same, even for experienced home chefs. I appreciate that you showed a less than perfect (by your standard perhaps, to me it looks just fine lol) result and the whole process, because that's what real life cooking and real life in general often is.
i got a big bag of potatoes from a friend. it's potato day! had high ambitions. making a big batch of garlic mashed potatoes and the best shaped will be fries which i keep in a bowl of water in the fridge. i use the wolfgang puck immersion set that includes one for mashed potatoes (the whole reason i bought it). thanks for the info!
omg this recipe is super banging everybody in my house loved it and they even said it tasted better than popular restaurants :) thank you so much for providing these awesome recipes for us once again my family fall in love with me and my Ninja Foodi :) Merry Christmas
My husband just got me a ninja foodi and I am SO grateful for your videos! Thank you thank you thank you very much for all of these! No need to get sappy: but I didn’t have a mom. I don’t know how to cook or any recipes. I have learned a great deal from you and I appreciate it. You seem so sweet! Thank you again and I look forward to more videos!
Thank you! This is a favorite recipe in our house. I often substitute shredded Parmesan for the Smoked Gouda, due to the price of Smoked Gouda where I live. These potatoes are great as left overs too. Sometimes we make them into Patties and fry them in a pan to go with eggs for breakfast. We cook the patties a little on each side, then sprinkle a little shredded cheddar under each patty about half way through frying them, then flip and do the same on the other side. The cheese turns golden brown and is so good!
Girl that’s almost 40 cloves of garlic! 🧄 🤣🤷🏼♀️ I trust you tho. So far I have made your spaghetti recipe, country ribs, Shepard’s pie, mac and cheese and the vegetable primavera. All so so so DELICIOUS! Thanks for all your hard work. Your recipes are simply amazing.✌🏼
Russet potatoes are a little bit drier than Yukon potatoes. I would probably drain the Yukon potatoes first to take out as much liquid and then add the butter and the milk which I would heat first (about 30 seconds in the microwave) so that it doesn’t make the potatoes gummy and will absorb in the potatoes much better. But your recipe looks delicious! I will try it with the onions and garlic. Such a great tip!
In April I had a boneless turkey breast, which I did in my oven, plus I had your cheesy garlic mashed potatoes in my 6.5 Ninja Foodi. Loved them I added a little to much garlic but it was great for that night’s dinner plus the next day as well. I’ll be making that again soon.
Thank you for your videos. I love them. Honest and down to earth. Anyway, I see I need to add a heck of a lot more garlic to my garlic mashed potatoes.
Thank you! If you are adding whole cloves, yes you do need a lot of them. However, if you are mincing the garlic, then be careful because too much will overpower the potatoes.
I love your recipes ! I love them taste amazing ! I always cook and measure by heart and your recipes always turn out soo good ! :) I am new to the Ninja Foodi Community and I feel a lot more confident watching your videos !
Mmmmmmm 😋, looks great, can’t wait to try this recipe. And to make left over mash into soup 🤦🏻♀️ what a great idea, gonna make extra just to try that out ❤️
Hi Louise, I am making 5lbs of russets for my mashed potatoes in my 8qt. I did see you mentioned increasing the stock to about a cup or slightly more for 3lbs if using russets. Would I add even more liquid for the additional 2lbs of potatoes?
Such great videos! Thank you for the effort you put in to them all. I have been binge watching them and just purchased the 8qt Foodi. I was wondering on rice with the bigger model can you use only 1 cup liquid and 1 cup rice or do you need to do 2 of each. It seems like 1 cup is too little for the pot, but I thought the recipe book said 1. Not sure if that meant for the 6.5? Ughhh.... anyway I figured if anyone knew it would be you!! Thanks again for your help and great videos!!
Thank you so much! Since both pots are the same diameter, you can use 1 cup of each in either size pot. The only thing that might be different is a little more steam has to be built to push the pin up on the 8 qt since it's taller. I don't think this will affect anything though.
Speaking of salt, you might want to look into Real Salt from Utah. Soooooo yummy with natural minerals. My husband did a blind test taste and it won by a landslide.
That's a great tip! Thin potatoes happen for sure. Thankfully, the written recipe worked out much better and these thickened up once they sat and even reheated, they were not thin.
Just got my Ninja and I, love your attitude. Has only cooked twice in it and luckily they have both turned out great using yours recipes. But I know that things my not always be perfect but you can fix it. We sometimes learn more from are mistakes
Hi Louise. Would you agree that once cooked it’s ok to put in an oven dish and then reheat later? I’m going to try this to serve with some thick cut pork chops - but as I cook the chops using pressure cooking and then grill, I’d be pushed to get a meal together at the same time 🤣. Or I just need a 2nd Ninja!
These potatoes reheat really well! In the oven or using the steam function on the Ninja Foodi. Even in the microwave as my husband found out. You'd also be surprised how long they stay hot. I'd put them in a dish, covered and on the keep warm in the oven and I bet they will be fine. Reheating mashed potatoes from refrigerator cold takes a while and I really recommend getting them hot with the steam function. And, yes... you need a second Ninja Foodi ! LOL
Thanks , Louise, for this Ninja Foodi version of mashed potatoes. If the pot is under pressure and the dread Water Notice shows, what steps should we take at this point to save the day?
Well, I hope it doesn't happen... but, if it does. Turn the pot off. Release the pressure, open the lid and scrape the bottom. The most likely reason for this is because the starch stuck to the bottom and not because of low water. If you see enough liquid in there, just go right back under pressure after scraping the bottom and you should be fine. If the pot seems dry, they you need to add more liquid before resuming the pressure cooking.
@@TheSaltedPepperThank you for your kind reply. The time and effort you put into all this has to be beyond impressive. Strangely, there's not much out there specific to the Ninja Foodi, but you have developed a wonderfully helpful website, and I think, to many of us , The Salted Pepper and Ninja Foodi are just two sides of the same coin. Wishing you and hubby all kinds of Christmas joy and a great New Year in 2020 :)
These aren't smooth to begin with because I left chunks in them on purpose and they reheat almost any way you can think of. My husband just put them in the microwave and they were fine. I think the best way to heat any kind of mashed potato is using the steam function on the Ninja Foodi. Put the potatoes in a covered pan with 2 cups of water in the inner pot and steam for 15-20 minutes or until they are hot. The amount of potatoes will determine the time needed.
If you love garlic you may want to try Green mountain organic garlic, they sell garlic to grow but I use 90% for eating since I grow a very small garden of garlic in containers. I love garlic and the German variety are huge cloves and sooo good. Look them up, they also sell black garlic. They aren't cheap but they are good fresh bulbs. And BACON on that soup! www.greenmountaingarlic.com/
I want to try growing garlic next year for sure, so I look into them. I have just recently heard about black garlic, I think you can actually make it in the Foodi.
You are lucky! I put the cream cheese in one of the times I made it and oh boy, it was quite a mess. It split and looked horrible. It didn't ruin anything, but it wasn't nice to look at. I stay away from pressure cooking with all dairy because it tends to split, but if you haven't had an issue, keep on doing it like you have been.
Has anyone tried this with roasted garlic? I think that would really bump up the flavor and you would probably need just one head of garlic as the flavor gets mellows, but becomes more pronounced when you roast a head of garlic.
@@TheSaltedPepper The way we make them in England is to simmer in a pan till soft, let them steam dry, then add plenty of butter, cream, salt and white pepper and use a proper masher. I've just ordered a ninja, but mash isnt something I'd cook in it if I'm honest. Good channel though, I like your content.
Mark Burgess you should try mash in the Food, even if it’s just once! It’s the same principle as what you just described. Releasing the steam from the potatoes is key! I’m assuming a proper masher is a hand held, no electricity or do you use a press?
Mark Burgess I’ve never had or made Yorkshire pudding, but I get requests all the time. I’m thinking it’s similar to a soufflé, but I’ll have to do some research.
I love dishes with lots of garlic in it. For example "Spaghetti Aglio e Olio e Peperoncino" 😸
I will have to try that!

Make sure you use roasted garlic or drastically reduce the amount of garlic or it will be overpowering for sure. Glad you enjoyed them!

Merry Christmas, Donna!
I am SO doing these!❤️ THX!
Make sure to look at the written recipe, so you don't have thin potatoes like I did! They are fantastic though!
The Salted Pepper Ok Thx,... Done.
Love this video! Helps me with my ninja! Thank you! 🙏🏽😍❤️

I tried this with russets tonight and the liquid was fine. The potato type was definitely the issue. It was SO good.
Great to hear!
Please, please more pressure cooker recipes!!! Thank you 💕🙏

All that u do in ur foodie can b done in the Instant Pot?
Is it possible to make bierocks with the ninja foodi 8-quart Deluxe ? Love your channel thanks for the great recipes.
I don't see why you couldn't make them. You wouldn't be able to make a ton of them at a time though.

Can I make baked potatoes
absolutely! I have a video coming out soon that tests the timing for baked potatoes done two ways.
When anything of mine is a little thin u can add in a lil pinch of flour and itll thicken up w out changing taste

@@TheSaltedPepper you would probably have to dedicate the foodi to that because it takes days to ferment them
At 4:35 the pot is topped with potatoes seeming resting above water level, is that a concern with safety when pressure cooking?
No, not at all. That max fill line is mostly for liquids.
You can put yor potatoes in basket keep them drier and pc for 4 min. Qr and they are fluffy
I did that and it didn't work as well for me. Maybe it was the potatoes I used.
Those potatoes does look great, but I would want some gravy and meat to go with them.
I made them to go with the Prime Rib I made! What a delicious meal that was!
I’ve been using milk for my potatoes when I pressure cook, why shouldn’t you? I’ve never had a problem 🙈
