Besides the delicious taste of the bell pepper casserole,  we also like the fact that this is one of the easy simple recipes on this site that produces a quick gourmet dish.  It is our belief that a great homemade recipe should be a recipe that makes a quick and delicious meal.

The Sliced Russet Potato is the tubular that will be added to the Bell Pepper Casserole.  The Russet is commonly used to make french fries and potato chips.  We are using it because of the sliced potatoes in the bell pepper casserole recipe.  We will make the mashed potatoes from very tasty sweet potatoes with the help of a potato ricer.  The combination of taste of the Russet and Sweet Potatoes will be something to remember.

The way that the Potato Ricer works is like this:  The Potato Ricer forces the potato through small holes which are just about the size of a grain of rice.  This is where the Potato Ricer gets its name. 

Perhaps the most popular use for the Potato Ricer is in the making of mashed potatoes.  This kitchen gadget makes great mashed potatoes a breeze.  And as an added bonus the Potato Ricer will make sure that your mashed potatoes do not have any lumps.  Is this one of the greatest kitchen gadgets ever?

You can now see why some people call the Potato Ricer a food ricer.  If any food is soft enough to fit through the rice size holes then the Potato Ricer will work on them.  You can experiment with different fruits and vegetables with the food ricer.

One other very important bit of information you should know about the kitchen ricer is that it will squeeze excess water from sliced or grated potatoes.  This comes in super handy if you want to make homemade crispy chips, crisps, or hash browns with your Potato Ricer.

Two Most Popular Brands Of Potatoe Ricer

There are many different brands of Potatoe Ricer on the market. But in reality there are two brands that dominate the Potatoe Ricer market:
  1. Oxo Potatoe Ricer
  2. Cuisipro Potato Ricer
  • The Oxo Potato Ricer  works like this: You place the Oxo Potato Ricer over a bowl or pot, squeeze the kitchen gadgets handles together, and mashed potatoes, fruits, and vegetables ooze right through. The Oxo Potato Ricer has the special, “Oxo Good Grips” which helps hold it in place and along with the Oxo Soft Handles, which provide a comfortable grip. The Oxo Potato Ricer is made of Stainless Steel which makes it one of the better kitchen gadgets you can buy.
  • The Cuisipro Potato Ricer: This Potato Ricer is also known as Browne Cuisipro Stainless Steel Potato Ricer. Many professional chefs swear by the Cuisipro Potato Ricer. It is a first rate Potato Ricer that is made of durable stainless steel and is one of the better quality kitchen gadgets you can buy.

You can always mash your potatoes, but if you want a finer, fluffier consistency consider a Potato Ricer.  It is a favorite kitchen gadget in some of the best commercial kitchens everywhere.  Don’t forget that you can also use the Potato Ricer for vegetables, baby food, and applesauce too!

So next time you want mashed potatoes, mash potatoes, or even smashed potatoes..reach for the Potato Ricer.

I think that garlic mashed potatoes has always been one of my favorites.  My mother used to make them at least once a month and I always looked forward to eating them.  Of course cheesy potatoes that were mashed came in a close second in my house.  In any case the best mashed potatoes were always the ones that mom served the family with the evening meal.

How To Make Mashed Potatoes

  1. Place the potatoes in a large pan and bring to a boil over medium heat. Reduce the heat to low, cover, and let simmer for 20 minutes or until the potatoes are tender.
  2. Drain the potatoes
  3. If you want really smooth mashed potatoes you can put them through a ricer at this point.
  4. Transfer the potatoes to a large bowl.
  5. If you have a food processor go to step 6. If you don’t have a food processor skip step 6 and go to step 7.
  6. Put the potatoes, milk, butter, salt, black pepper, nutmeg, cheddar cheese, and Worcestershire sauce in the food processor and get them potatoes smooooth.
  7. Place all the ingredients with the potatoes into a large bowl and with an electric hand held mixer, beat the potatoes until they are light and creamy.
