Parsnip Gratin With Turmeric and Cumin image

Parsnips are underappreciated but are by far the tastiest of winter vegetables, sweet and deep-flavored. Here, they are parboiled and splashed with cream, then baked with an unlikely but delicious combination: turmeric, cumin and feta.

This luxuriously creamy bake is the perfect partner to Sarah's veggie pie

Provided by Sarah Cook

Time 1h35m

Number Of Ingredients 7

800g parsnip , peeled
400ml milk
200ml double cream
200ml vegetable stock
4 tsp wholegrain mustard
4 tbsp grated Twineham Grange cheese (see Know-how, below)
whole nutmeg , for grating

Steps:

  • Slice enough parsnips thinly lengthways to cover the surface of a small ovenproof dish, then slice the rest thinly into rounds. Combine the milk, cream, stock, mustard and half the cheese in a large, lidded saucepan and bring to the boil. Add a good grating of nutmeg and some seasoning - the sweet parsnips can take a bit of salt - then tip in the parsnips. When the cream is simmering again, cover and cook for 6 mins.
  • Using tongs, fish out the long slices of parsnip and set aside. Tip the rest into your dish, then arrange the long slices over the top. Scatter with the rest of the cheese and another grating of nutmeg. Can be chilled for up to 24 hrs.
  • To serve, heat oven to 180C/fan 160C/gas 4 and bake for 1 hr, then turn up to 200C/fan 180C/gas 6 and brown for 15 mins more - you can do this while the pie is resting.

GRILLED HAM AND ASPARAGUS PANINI



Grilled Ham and Asparagus Panini image

Grilled Ham and Asparagus Panini Recipe from Festival Foods. This is by far my most favorite sandwich of the month. I like mine with roasted asparagus and sourdough bread. Another great option is using some melty Fontina or farmers cheese. I have also made this with thick pita bread and it adds another dimension. I love to make this sandwich for those days when you want something from those expensive Bistros, but also want to make it your own. Please try your own style and let me know how it turns out for you!

Categories     Lunch/Snacks

Time 20m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

4 tablespoons butter, melted
1 teaspoon garlic salt
1 1/2 cups mayonnaise
3 tablespoons pesto sauce
8 slices Italian bread (sourdough works well too)
3/4 lb deli ham, shaved
12 asparagus spears, lightly steamed (Try roasting for a twist)
4 ounces asiago cheese, sliced with a vegetable peeler
1/2 cup roasted red pepper, sliced into thin strips

Steps:

  • In a small bowl mix garlic salt and butter together. Brush one side of each of the pieces of bread. In another bowl mix mayo and pesto sauce.
  • Spread mayo/pesto on other side of each slice of bread. Top 1/2 of slices of bread with ham, asparagus spears, red pepper and Asiago.
  • Top with remaining bread slices and cook in a panini grill or in a large skillet with a little extra butter (like you would a grill cheese, pressing down with a heavy pan on top.).
  • Cook until bread is toasted and sandwich is heated through.
  • Serve with fresh fruits.

Tips:

  • Choose the right parsnips: Look for firm, smooth parsnips with no blemishes or bruises. Avoid any that are soft or wrinkled.
  • Prep the parsnips properly: Peel the parsnips and cut them into uniform slices or chunks. This will ensure that they cook evenly.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: When browning the parsnips, make sure not to overcrowd the pan. This will prevent them from cooking evenly and becoming mushy.
  • Use a good quality Gruyère cheese: The Gruyère cheese is a key ingredient in this dish, so it's important to use a good quality cheese. Look for a cheese that is flavorful and melts well.
  • Don't overcook the casserole: The casserole is done when the parsnips are tender and the cheese is melted and bubbly. Overcooking will make the parsnips mushy and the cheese rubbery.

Conclusion:

This parsnips ham au gratin is a delicious and comforting dish that is perfect for a winter meal. The parsnips are roasted until tender and flavorful, and the ham and Gruyère cheese add a rich and creamy flavor. The casserole is also easy to make, making it a great option for a busy weeknight meal.
