BEET, GREENS AND CHEDDAR CRUMBLE



Beet, Greens and Cheddar Crumble image

This unusual, savory crumble is reminiscent of macaroni and cheese, but vegetable matter (beets and beet greens) standing in for the pasta. The vegetables are bound with a rich béchamel laced with grated clothbound cheddar, and the whole thing is topped with peppery oatmeal crumbs. As written, the recipe is at once comforting and sophisticated. If you like things on the fiery side, a squirt of sriracha does the trick. And if you or your family feel the need for meat to complete the meal, a side of grilled sausages would fill the bill beautifully.

Time 2h30m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

1 pound medium beets
3 sprigs fresh thyme branches plus 3/4 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves
2 garlic cloves, peeled
1/4 teaspoon black peppercorns
Kosher salt and black pepper
1 1/4 pounds beet greens, Swiss chard or a mix of both
11 tablespoons cold unsalted butter, more for greasing pan
150 grams all-purpose flour (1 1/3 cups)
2 cups milk
9 ounces sharp Cheddar, grated (2 1/4 cups)
2 to 3 tablespoons English mustard powder, to taste
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1/2 teaspoon Tabasco sauce, more as needed
25 grams rolled oats (1/4 cup)
20 grams toasted hazelnuts, chopped (3 tablespoons)
1 1/2 teaspoons grated Parmigiano-Reggiano
1/4 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg

Steps:

  • Combine beets, thyme branches, garlic and peppercorns in a large pot. Cover with cold salted water. Bring to a simmer over medium-high heat; cook until beets are tender, 15 to 30 minutes depending on size. Remove with a slotted spoon. Add greens and cook for 2 minutes (do this in batches if necessary); remove with tongs and transfer immediately to a bowl of ice water. Drain well.
  • Once beets are cool enough to handle, peel them and slice crosswise into 1/4-inch-thick slices. Roughly chop greens' leaves and stalks.
  • Prepare the béchamel: In a small saucepan over low heat, melt 5 tablespoons butter. Stir in 75 grams flour ( 2/3 cup). Cook, stirring constantly, for 2 minutes; roux should smell cooked but remain white. Slowly whisk in milk until mixture forms a thick, smooth sauce. Stir in 8 ounces Cheddar (2 cups) until melted. Stir in mustard powder, Worcestershire and Tabasco. Season with salt to taste.
  • Make the crumble topping: In a small bowl, stir together remaining 2/3 cup flour, the oats and the hazelnuts. Use your fingers to work in 6 tablespoons butter, the remaining 1 ounce Cheddar ( 1/4 cup) and the Parmigiano-Reggiano. It should be a mixture of large and small pieces. Season with a pinch of salt, pepper and the nutmeg.
  • When you are ready to assemble the dish, heat oven to 350 degrees. Butter a 2-quart gratin or baking dish. Spread a layer of béchamel on the bottom. Top with a layer of beets, followed by a layer of greens and stalks. Season generously with salt and pepper, and sprinkle with thyme leaves. Spread another layer of béchamel on top and repeat process to fill dish (you will end up with 3 or 4 layers). Cover entire surface with crumble topping. Transfer dish to oven and bake until bubbling and golden brown in spots, 45 minutes to 1 hour.

Time 50m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

4 red beets, about baseball size, trimmed
2 pounds soft goat cheese
4 teaspoons minced thyme
4 teaspoons minced rosemary
1 1/2 tablespoons black truffle oil
Salt and fresh black pepper

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Wrap beets in heavy foil. Roast until easily pierced with a knife, about 2 hours. Cool, then rub off skins with paper towel.
  • Using a mandoline or sharp knife, slice beets as thin as possible. Line an 11-by-3 1/2-by-3-inch terrine with plastic wrap. Line bottom and sides with beet slices, overlapping slightly.
  • Melt goat cheese in double boiler or bowl set over simmering water. Transfer to food processor, and add thyme, rosemary, truffle oil and salt and pepper to taste. Process until smooth.
  • Place goat cheese in a pastry bag without a tip (or use two large spoons), and pipe into mold. Smooth mixture, and top with layer of beet slices. Press gently on top to flatten and compress. Trim any slices that extend above top, to make neat edge. Cover, and refrigerate at least 2 hours, up to two days.
  • To serve, invert chilled terrine onto a plate and remove plastic wrap. Cut terrine into 16 slices, and allow to come to room temperature. Place two slices on each of eight serving plates, accompanied by a mache salad if desired.

Yield Makes 6 first-course servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

1/4 cup (1/2 stick) butter
2 (2 1/2- to 3-inch-diameter) beets, peeled, cut into 1/2-inch cubes
1 1/2 cups chopped white onion
1 cup arborio rice or medium-grain white rice
3 cups low-salt chicken broth or vegetable broth
1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
1 1/2 cups chopped mustard greens
1 (5 1/2-ounce) package chilled soft fresh goat cheese, coarsely crumbled

Steps:

  • Melt butter in heavy large saucepan over medium heat. Add beets and onion. Cover; cook until onion is soft, about 8 minutes. Mix in rice. Add broth and vinegar. Increase heat; bring to boil. Reduce heat to medium-low. Simmer uncovered until rice and beets are just tender and risotto is creamy, stirring occasionally, about 15 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Spoon into shallow bowls. Sprinkle with greens and cheese.

Tips:

  • For the best flavor, use fresh, ripe beets. If you can't find fresh beets, you can use canned or jarred beets, but be sure to drain and rinse them thoroughly before using.
  • To make the goat cheese crumble, simply use a fork to break the goat cheese into small pieces. You can also use your fingers, but be careful not to overwork the goat cheese, or it will become too soft.
  • If you don't have a mandoline, you can use a sharp knife to thinly slice the beets. Just be careful to slice them evenly, so that they cook evenly.
  • To make the vinaigrette, simply whisk together the olive oil, vinegar, honey, salt, and pepper. You can also add a touch of Dijon mustard or minced shallots, if desired.
  • To assemble the tartare, simply layer the beets, goat cheese, green beans, and vinaigrette in a serving dish. You can also add a sprinkle of chopped fresh herbs, such as dill or chives, if desired.

Conclusion:

This crumbled goat cheese, red beet, and green bean tartare is a delicious and refreshing appetizer that is perfect for any occasion. It is easy to make and can be prepared ahead of time, making it a great option for busy weeknights.
