How to Make Corn And Smoked Mozzarella Mashed Potatoes
- Heat a large nonstick skillet coated with cooking spray over medium-high heat.
- Add 1 cup of frozen or fresh corn kernels to the skillet.
- Stir and sauté for 5-7 minutes, or until the corn is lightly browned and slightly tender. Remove from heat and set aside to cool.
- Peel and chop 2 pounds of russet potatoes into 1-inch cubes. Place the potatoes in a large saucepan.
- Add enough water to cover the potatoes by about 1 inch.
- Bring the water to a boil over high heat. Once boiling, reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer for 15-20 minutes, or until the potatoes are easily pierced with a fork.
- Drain the potatoes thoroughly and return them to the saucepan.
- Add 1/2 cup of whole milk (or more, to reach desired consistency), 4 ounces of smoked mozzarella cheese, shredded, and 2 tablespoons of butter.
- Mash the potatoes with a potato masher or electric mixer until smooth and creamy. Add more milk if needed to adjust consistency.
- Cook over low heat for 2 minutes, stirring constantly, to melt the cheese completely.
- Stir in the cooked corn, 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro (or 1 tablespoon dried), and salt and pepper to taste.
