Richard Fox’s Beer Mashed Potato

  • Richard Fox’s Beer Mashed Potato

A couple of days ago I spotted Richard Fox’s Beer and Food book going cheap so decided to order it and see what it was like. I’ve only had a quick flick through so there will be  a proper review of it soon, but in the meantime I decided to make his beer mashed potatoes to go with our bangers on Sunday night.

Richard Fox's Beer & Food Cook book

It did seem like a bit of a waste of beer but the flavour of the mash was worth it, The recipe suggested using Old Speckled Hen so that’s what I did, A little bit of the bitterness came through as did the beer flavour, which I think added a nice twist to the dish, it would also work quite well with a touch of mustard in too.

I used my potato ricer instead of mashing it, so once the butter had melted I removed it from the heat and riced the potatoes into it.

Ingredients

  • 600g Potatoes
  • 60g butter
  • 90ml milk
  • 300ml beer
  • 300ml water
  • salt
  • pepper

Method

  1. Peel and dice the potatoes, place in a pan, cover with the water and beer, season with a good pinch of salt.
  2. Boil until the potatoes are soft, then drain well.
  3. Melt the butter and milk in the pan then add the potatoes back into the pan and mash well.
  4. Season with salt and pepper
  5. Serve with your choice of bangers and gravy.

If you want to try the book for your self you can find it on Amazon here.
