IdahoŽ Potato & Crab Souffle


Recipe courtesy of Jennifer Aranas, Chef, Writer, Chicago, IL

Yield: Serves 6

Ingredients


Crab Filling:
  • 1 cup Cooked crabmeat
  • 1/4 cut brunoise cut Sweet bell peppers
  • 1 tsp Garlic, minced
  • 1 tsp Ginger, minced
  • 1/4 cup Onions, caramelized and chopped
  • 1 Tbsp Thai chile sambal
  • 2 Tbsp Oyster sauce
Potato Soufflé:
  • 8 oz Mashed Idaho russet potatoes*
  • 3 oz Parmesan cheese, grated
  • 2 Tbsp Heavy cream
  • 2 Egg yolks
  • 2 Egg whites, stiffly beaten
  • Salt and pepper to taste

    * use fresh or processed Idaho® Potatoes


Directions


  1. Crab Filling: Place crab in a bowl. Sauté remaining ingredients until peppers are slightly wilted (about 5 minutes). Add to crab meat and allow to cool.
  2. Potato Soufflé: Mix all ingredients together until smooth, being careful not to over mix, which will deflate egg whites. Gently add crab mixture to potato soufflé.
  3. Assembly: Divide soufflé mixture among 6 well-buttered 3-oz ramekins. Cover with potato batter. Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese and bake at 350°F for 15-20 minutes.
  4. Plate: Unmold each soufflé onto an appetizer-sized plate. Can be served with a roasted red pepper and chili-oil mayonnaise.
