directions
Place the potatoes and rosemary into a large pot. Add a generous pinch of salt. Add water to the pot (just enough to cover the potatoes).
Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to medium and let the potatoes cook until tender, about 15 minutes.
Reserve 1/2 cup of water from the pot, then drain the potatoes.
Once they are cool enough to touch, slice off the top of each potato lengthwise (about 1/4 of the potato). If needed, cut a small slice off the bottom to allow potatoes to lay flat.
Place the cut parts of the potatoes into a food processor, then add the mustard, sour cream, lemon zest, and a generous pinch of black pepper. Add a splash of the reserved water and pulse until smooth, being careful not to over-mix or the texture will become gummy. (Add more water as you go if needed).
Taste the mixture and add more salt and pepper if desired. Fill a piping bag or Ziploc bag with the mixture and top each potato with about a tablespoon of it.
For Garnish
Garnish with chives and paprika.
expiry
Store in the fridge for up to 5 days.
tips
If using a Ziploc bag for piping the filling onto the potatoes — fill a gallon sized bag with the mixture, close the bag, then snip just the corner of the bag off (start with a small cut and make it larger if needed). Squeeze about 1 tbsp of filling onto each potato.
This version of Spanish paprika has only a very mild amount of heat, with a slightly sweet and slightly smoky flavor. It is a deep red color with flecks of yellow and has a smooth, fine granular texture.
