Best 6 Potato Rösti Or Beet Or Carrot Or Winter Squash Recipes

WINTER SQUASH AND POTATO GRATIN

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Rub the inside of a 2-quart gratin dish or baking dish with the cut side of the garlic, and lightly oil with olive oil or butter. Slice any garlic that remains and toss with the potatoes, squash, thyme, rosemary, half the cheese and a generous amount of salt and pepper. Arrange in an even layer in the gratin dish.
• Pour the milk over the potatoes and squash, and press the vegetables down into the milk. Place in the oven, and bake one hour. Every 20 minutes, remove the gratin dish and press the potatoes and squash down into the liquid with the back of a large spoon. After one hour, sprinkle on the remaining cheese and bake for another 30 minutes, until the top is golden and the sides crusty. Remove from the oven, and allow to sit for 10 to 15 minutes before serving. Serve hot or warm.

Steps:

• Scrub potatoes well and peel them if you prefer, though it's not necessary.
• Grate the potatoes using a food processor or by hand; place grated potatoes in cold water to prevent them from turning brown.
• When you're ready to cook the potatoes, drain well in a colander or strainer, place in clean tea towel and squeeze out the water.
• Heat a large cast iron or nonstick skillet over medium heat (I like how cast iron browns food).
• Toss potatoes in a large bowl with a generous amount of salt and pepper.
• Heat large cast iron or nonstick skillet over medium heat (I like how cast iron browns food), add 2 tbsp of oil or butter to skillet and heat (until the butter begins to turn brown, if using).

• Turn heat up to medium high and cook, shaking pan occasionally, until the bottom of the potato cake is crisp (about 6 to 8 minutes).
• Slide potato cake onto a plate, top with another plate, invert plates.

POTATO ROSTI

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees, with rack in lower third. Generously brush a 17-by-12-inch rimmed baking sheet with oil.
• Place onions in a large bowl. Peel potatoes, and grate on the large holes of a box grater, adding them to bowl and stirring into onions as you work to prevent discoloration. Squeeze handfuls of the mixture to release excess liquid, and transfer mixture to another bowl.
• Add salt, pepper, cheese, and oil to potato mixture, and toss well to combine. Sprinkle mixture over prepared baking sheet, and press down lightly with your hands to form an even layer.
• Bake until golden, about one hour. Remove from oven, and cut into squares. Serve immediately with applesauce.

ROAST POTATOES AND SQUASH

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees and soak the potatoes in cold water for 5 minutes, to remove excess starch. Drain the potatoes and pat dry.
• Place the potatoes and the squash in one layer in a nonstick roasting pan. Drizzle with the olive oil, sprinkle with rosemary and season with salt and pepper. Roast for 30 minutes and then stir so that the vegetables cook evenly. Continue roasting until well browned, about 30 more minutes and serve immediately.

CARROT, SQUASH AND POTATO RAGOUT WITH THAI FLAVORS

Steps:

• Heat the oil over medium heat in a heavy lidded skillet or wide saucepan and add the ginger and onion. Cook, stirring often, until the onion begins to soften, about 3 minutes. Add a pinch of salt, the tofu and the chiles, stir together, cover and cook gently for another 3 minutes, until the onion is soft but not browned. Add the curry powder, stir together, and add the lemon grass, carrots, squash, potatoes, and stock. Add salt to taste, bring to a simmer, cover and simmer 20 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender but not mushy.
• Meanwhile place the coconut milk in a saucepan and bring to a boil. Reduce by half.
• Stir the coconut milk into the vegetable ragout and combine well. Cover and simmer gently for 5 minutes. Remove the lemon grass stalk. Taste and adjust seasonings. Just before serving stir in the lime juice. Serve in wide bowls, with rice if desired, garnishing each bowl with chopped cilantro.

POTATOES RöSTI

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400°F/200°C/gas 6.
• Cut the potatoes into thin matchsticks using a julienne attachment on a mandoline or food processor. Or, cut into thin rounds and use a sharp knife to cut the rounds into strips {more time consuming, but it works!}
• Heat the butter and olive oil in an 8-in/20-cm ovenproof cast-iron or non-stick frying pan, over medium heat. Add the rosemary to the potatoes, and season with salt and pepper. Increase the heat to medium-high and cook, stirring occasionally, until the potatoes are soft and a few pieces are brown. At this point, the potatoes should have settled into a round flat pancake.
• Transfer the potatoes in the skillet to the hot oven to bake until the top and bottom are golden and crispy and the center is soft but cooked through, about 30 minutes. Remove from the oven and slide out of the pan onto paper towels/absorbent papers. Slide onto a baking sheet/tray and continue until the top and bottom are cooked to a deep golden brown, about 10 minutes more. Serve in wedges or whole on a plate in the middle of the table for breaking and nibbling.
