CORNED BEEF WITH CABBAGE, POTATOES AND CARROTS



Corned Beef With Cabbage, Potatoes and Carrots image

Cure beef brisket in a salty, spiced brine and it becomes savory, tangy and aromatic corned beef. Get a corned beef made from flat-cut brisket, if you can, as it will be easier to slice into neat, uniform slabs. (The point cut has more striations of fat and may fall apart when sliced.) Braise the meat until tender, and add the vegetables toward the end of the braising time so they'll absorb the beef juices and soften until perfectly crisp-tender. Finish the beef with a simple honey-mustard glaze and a quick broil to caramelize, then serve it with more Dijon mustard and beer. (Here are slow cooker and pressure cooker versions of the recipe.)

Provided by Sarah DiGregorio

Categories     dinner, lunch, meat, vegetables, main course

Time 4h45m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

3 to 3 1/2-pound ready-to-cook corned beef, preferably flat-cut
1 1/4 cups semi-dry white wine, such as Riesling
1 pound red or Yukon gold potatoes, cut into 1- to 2-inch pieces
2 to 3 large carrots (about 1/2 pound), peeled and cut into 1- to 2-inch pieces
1/2 small head green or savoy cabbage (about 1 pound), core left intact, cut into 4 wedges
3 tablespoons Dijon mustard, plus more for serving
2 tablespoons honey
Flaky sea salt, if necessary
Black pepper

Steps:

  • Heat the oven to 325 degrees. Remove the corned beef from its packaging in the sink and reserve the spice packet. Rinse the beef well under cold running water and pat it dry with paper towels. (If you don't rinse off the brine, the meat will be too salty.) If there is a substantial fat cap on top of the beef, place the beef on a cutting board and trim most of it, if you'd like. (The fat will not completely render away during cooking.) Be sure to leave at least a thin layer of fat on top, about 1/8- to 1/4-inch thick, to keep the meat moist.
  • Transfer the corned beef to a large Dutch oven with the fat cap facing up. Add the wine and the spices from the packet. Cover the pot and transfer to the oven to cook, 3 hours.
  • Baste the beef with the cooking liquid. Drop the potatoes and carrots into the liquid surrounding the beef and lay the cabbage wedges on top. Cover and cook until the corned beef and vegetables are tender, 1 to 1 1/2 hours. (A paring knife should slip easily into the beef, but the meat should not be falling apart.)
  • Heat the broiler to high. Stir together the mustard and honey in a small bowl. Remove the corned beef from the pot and put it on a foil-lined sheet pan. Spoon the honey-mustard glaze all over the top and sides of the beef and slide it under the broiler. Cook until the glaze bubbles and caramelizes in spots, about 3 minutes.
  • Let the corned beef rest for 5 to 10 minutes, then slice it against the grain into 1/2-inch slabs. Place the beef slices on the serving platter alongside the vegetables and drizzle everything with a little bit of the cooking liquid. Taste the vegetables, and season them with flaky sea salt, if necessary. (The beef will not need to be seasoned with salt.) Season the beef and vegetables to taste with black pepper. Serve with Dijon mustard.

  • Drizzle 1/3 cup of the reserved marinade over the pork, coating all the sides. Set the remaining 1/3 cup marinade aside to serve as a sauce. Scatter the potatoes and carrots evenly around the pork. Roast in the oven until the pork reaches an internal temperature of 145 degrees F, about 50 minutes. Let the pork rest for 5 to 10 minutes before slicing.

Yield Makes 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

Beef:
1 (4-rib) standing beef rib roast (bone-in prime rib; 9 to 10 pounds)
1/4 cup mixed peppercorns (pink, white, and green)
3 tablespoons plus 2 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt, divided
2 tablespoons chopped fresh thyme
2 tablespoons chopped fresh rosemary
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
3 pounds medium Yukon Gold potatoes, peeled and each cut into 6 wedges (keep in a bowl of cold water to prevent discoloration)
3 pounds carrots, peeled and cut diagonally into 2-inch pieces
Jus:
1 (750 milliliter) bottle Pinot Noir
1/2 cup chopped shallots
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, divided
2 1/4 cups reduced-salt beef or chicken broth
Special Equipment
Heavy flameproof roasting pan (not glass) fitted with a flat rack; instant-read thermometer; 2 (18- by 13-inch) heavy rimmed sheet pans (aka half-sheet pans); parchment paper

Steps:

  • For roast beef:
  • Pat roast dry and put, fat side up, on rack in roasting pan.
  • Coarsely crush peppercorns in a mortar and pestle or folded kitchen towel (not terry cloth) with a meat pounder or bottom of a heavy skillet. Stir together peppercorns, 3 tablespoons kosher salt, thyme, and rosemary in a small bowl.
  • Rub roast all over with oil, then coat it all over with peppercorn mixture, pressing to help it adhere. Let coated roast stand at room temperature 1 hour.
  • Preheat oven to 450°F with rack in lower third. Roast beef roast 20 minutes.
  • Reduce oven temperature to 350°F and roast until an instant-read thermometer inserted into center of meat (do not touch bone) registers 110°F, 1 1/2 to 2 hours more. Transfer to a platter (keep fat and pan juices in roasting pan) and let stand, uncovered, 40 minutes (temperature of meat will rise to about 130°F for medium-rare).
  • While roast stands, put second oven rack in upper-third position and increase oven temperature to 450°F. Line 1 sheet pan with parchment paper.
  • Strain pan juices from roasting pan through a sieve into a glass measuring cup (reserve roasting pan). Drain potatoes well and toss in a large bowl with 3 tablespoons melted beef fat from roasting pan and 1 teaspoon kosher salt, then spread out on parchment-lined sheet pan. Toss carrots in same bowl with another 3 tablespoons beef fat from pan and 1 teaspoon kosher salt, then spread out on other rimmed sheet pan. Roast vegetables in upper and lower thirds of oven, stirring occasionally and switching position of pans halfway through roasting, until golden, 25 to 30 minutes for carrots and 30 to 35 minutes for potatoes.
  • Make jus while vegetables roast:
  • Skim off and discard any remaining fat from pan juices. Set pan over 2 burners. Add 1 cup of wine and deglaze pan by boiling it over high heat, scraping up brown bits, 1 minute. Pour into pan juices in cup.
  • Cook shallot in 1 tablespoon butter with remaining 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt in a 3- to 4-quart heavy saucepan over medium heat, stirring, until golden, 4 to 5 minutes. Add wine mixture in cup, along with remaining wine in bottle, and boil over high heat until mixture is reduced to 3/4 cup, about 10 minutes.
  • Add broth and continue to boil over high heat until mixture is reduced to 1 1/2 cups. Strain mixture through a sieve into another saucepan and whisk in remaining 3 tablespoons butter (cut into pieces) until incorporated. Season sauce with salt and pepper.
  • To carve roast, slide a carving knife along inside of ribs to separate meat from bones, then cut ribs into individual bones. Slice meat and serve with vegetables and jus.

ROASTED POTATOES AND BABY CARROTS WITH GARLIC



Roasted Potatoes and Baby Carrots With Garlic image

I just purchase a small bag of baby carrots and use the whole bag for this, or use regular peeled carrots cut into about 2-inch chunks. Try to use a good quality olive oil for this. After you have been making this for a while you will know just how much to adjust your salt and garlic, the amounts listed are about the amounts I use when I make this, but all ingredients can be adjusted to suit taste, if you are a garlic-lover use lots of garlic, after cooking the garlic flavor will mellow and will not as strong, so don't be intimated by 8 cloves! This can be made hours in advance and just rewarmed. If you find that the baby carrots are done before the potatoes just remove them to a bowl. I make this very often, it is a simple side dish with lots of flavor, I roast all of my root veggies using the same method and ingredients, rutabagas, parsnips, beets, large chunky size carrots and even sweet potatoes or yams, just peel them and chop into 2-inch pieces (larger size for yams). This is a fantastic side dish, simple and delicious!

BAKED FARMER SAUSAGE, POTATOES, AND CARROTS WITH GRAVY



Baked Farmer Sausage, Potatoes, and Carrots With Gravy image

This used to be the traditional Mennonite Sunday lunch at our house -- it has since become more likely at supper, but it's just as traditional and just as delicious! I'm not sure where farmer sausage is all available or whether it's one of those local specialties just available in Manitoba, so I've posted a recipe for that as well for those of you who make your own sausages. (#184513) If you can't buy it nearby or make it yourself, I'm terribly sorry -- you're definitely missing out! This recipe is for those of you who can.

Provided by Swan Valley Tammi

Categories     One Dish Meal

Time 2h

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 lbs frozen farmer sausage
4 medium potatoes, peeled and quartered
8 medium carrots, peeled and cut into 3-4 pieces each
sausage drippings
2 tablespoons flour
1 cup milk
salt and pepper

Steps:

  • If desired, peel frozen farmer sausage. (The best way is to hold it under a trickle of warm water.) Break sausage into 4-6 chunks.
  • Place potatoes and carrots into a roaster or large casserole dish. Add water to cover the bottom of the dish.
  • Place frozen sausage chunks over top (so drippings will flavour the vegetables), cover, and bake at 375F for 1-1/2 hours.
  • Remove from oven and drain juices from casserole dish into a saucepan. (You may want to put the sausage and vegetables in a serving dish now and keep warm in the oven.).
  • For gravy: Mix flour and milk together, adding milk gradually so a paste forms and slowly gets thicker -- you don't want lumps! (Actually, a Tupperware gravy shaker works best for this. You can just throw it all together and shake it up without worrying about lumps at all.).
  • Add milk mixture to drippings and bring to a boil, stirring constantly, until gravy is thickened. (Depending on how much water content your sausage had, you may need to add a little more flour or milk to achieve the desired thickness.).
  • Add salt and pepper to taste and serve.

WINTER VEGETABLE SOUP WITH TURNIPS, CARROTS, POTATOES AND LEEKS



Winter Vegetable Soup With Turnips, Carrots, Potatoes and Leeks image

I use the food mill instead of a blender - immersion or regular - because I love the texture of the soup when it's put through the mill's coarse blade, resulting in a flavorful, colorful mixture that you can almost chew on. But you can use a blender to purée the soup. The texture will be coarsest - which is what you want - if you use an immersion blender.

Provided by Martha Rose Shulman

Categories     soups and stews, appetizer, main course

Time 1h

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

3 large leeks (1 to 1 1/2 pounds), white parts only, cleaned and sliced 1/2 inch thick
2 garlic cloves, minced
3 large carrots (10 ounces), diced
1 celery stalk, diced
1 large or 2 medium turnips (10 ounces), peeled and diced
1 pound russet potatoes, peeled and diced
A bouquet garni made with a bay leaf and a few sprigs each thyme and parsley
Salt and black pepper
1/4 cup crème fraîche, more to taste
Chopped fresh parsley or tarragon, for garnish

Steps:

  • In a large soup pot or Dutch oven, combine the leeks, garlic, carrots, celery, turnips, potatoes, bouquet garni, 1 1/2 quarts water, 2 to 3 teaspoons salt, and pepper to taste. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, cover and simmer 40 to 45 minutes, until the vegetables are very soft.
  • Pass the soup through the coarse blade of a food mill (or purée using a blender or an immersion blender).
  • Return soup to the pot and whisk in 1/4 cup crème fraîche (or more, to taste). Heat through, taste and adjust seasonings (be generous with salt and pepper). To serve, garnish each bowl with a spoonful of crème fraîche and a sprinkle of parsley or tarragon.

ROASTED RUTABAGA AND POTATOES WITH CARROTS



Roasted Rutabaga and Potatoes with Carrots image

I wasn't able to find a recipe like this for rutabaga anywhere, so I came up with one on my own, and it was fantastic! Just make sure that you thoroughly cook your rutabaga--it's not so good when it still has that bitter semi-raw taste.

JAMIE OLIVER'S ROAST POTATOES, PARSNIPS, AND CARROTS



Jamie Oliver's Roast Potatoes, Parsnips, and Carrots image

Quoted from Jamie Oliver's website: "Have a go at this recipe - it will give you potatoes that are perfectly crispy on the outside and fluffy in the middle. The principle of parcooking in boiling water, then tossing in flavoured oil and roasting until deliciously golden and crisp, is just about the same for any other root veg, particularly parsnips and carrots, so I've included these in this recipe too."

Categories     Potato

Time 1h15m

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 1/2 lbs potatoes
6 parsnips
6 carrots
1 bulb of garlic
3 sprigs fresh rosemary
sea salt
black pepper, freshly ground
2 -3 tablespoons olive oil

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 400°.
  • Peel the vegetables and halve any larger ones lengthways. Break the garlic bulb into cloves, leaving them unpeeled, and bash them slightly with the palm of your hand. Pick the rosemary leaves from the woody stalks.
  • Put the potatoes and carrots into a large pan - you may need to use two - of salted, boiling water on a high heat and bring back to the boil.
  • Allow to boil for 5 minutes, then add the parsnips and cook for another 4 minutes.
  • Drain in a colander and allow to steam dry. Take out the carrots and parsnips and put to one side.
  • Fluff up the potatoes in the colander by shaking it around a little - it's important to 'chuff them up' like this if you want them to have all those lovely crispy bits when they're cooked.
  • Add the olive oil, garlic, and rosemary leaves.
  • Put the vegetables into the tray with a good pinch of salt and pepper and stir them around to coat them in the flavours.
  • Spread them out evenly into one layer - this is important, as you want them to roast, not steam as they will if you have them all on top of each other
  • Cook for approximately 40 minutes or until the vegetables become browned and crispy.

RED WINE-BRAISED SHORT RIB STEW WITH POTATOES, CARROTS, AND MUSHROOMS



Red Wine-Braised Short Rib Stew with Potatoes, Carrots, and Mushrooms image

If you haven't noticed by now, we love braising. This stew wraps itself around your soul and squeezes ever so gently. And while it truly embodies the concept of a one-pot meal, we do like to roast the vegetables separately so they retain their individual flavor, creating even greater depth of flavor.

Yield 4-6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 18

For the short ribs:
1 tablespoon ghee or olive oil
3 pounds boneless short ribs, trimmed
1 tablespoon sea salt
1 onion, peeled and chopped
1 carrot, scrubbed and chopped
1 celery stalk, chopped
1 cup port or red wine
6 sprigs fresh thyme
4 whole garlic cloves
2 cups Beef Bone Broth
Chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley, for serving
For the vegetables:
2 potatoes, diced
2 carrots, peeled and diced
8 shiitake mushrooms, stems removed, caps chopped
1 tablesepoon ghee or olive oil
1 teaspoon sea salt

Steps:

  • Prepare the short ribs: In a large oven-safe pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat, heat the ghee or olive oil.
  • Pat the short ribs dry with paper towels and season with the sea salt. Gently place the short ribs in the hot ghee or oil and sear on all sides until golden brown, about 4 minutes per side, turning as needed and searing in batches if needed to avoid overcrowding the pot. Transfer to a plate.
  • To the same pot, add the onion, carrot and celery and cook until the veggies begin to brown, stirring as needed to avoid burning, about 5 minutes.
  • Add the wine and deglaze the pot, scraping the browned bits loose from the bottom of the pot. Add the thyme and garlic and bring to a simmer. Let the wine reduce by half, about 10 minutes, then remove the pot form the heat.
  • Place the browned short ribs into the wine reduction along with the bone broth and let marinate for 1 hour in the refrigerator. Alternatively, you can prepare this dish in advance by letting the ribs marinate for a full 24 hours-well worth it in our opinion.
  • Preheat the oven to 350°F.
  • Remove the pot from the refrigerator, cover with a lid or aluminum foil, and transfer to the oven to braise for 2 1/2 hours.
  • At the 2 hour mark, when 30 minutes remain on the cooking time for the short ribs, prepare the vegetables: On a baking sheet, toss the potatoes, carrots, and mushrooms with the ghee or oil and sea salt. Spread out in and even layer and roast in the oven for 20 to 25 minutes, until the potatoes and carrots are knife-tender.
  • Remove the pot with the short ribs from the oven, uncover, and transfer the meat to a plate. Strain the braising liquid into a deep serving dish; discard the solids from the liquid. Add the roasted veggies to the serving dish and stir to distribute evenly. Using your hands or a fork, break the short ribs into chunks and stir in as well. Garnish with a little chopped fresh parsley and serve family style.
  • The stew or any leftovers can be refrigerated for up to 1 week, or frozen for up to 6 months.

Tips for Cooking Potatoes and Carrots

  • Choose the right potatoes and carrots. For roasting, choose firm, starchy potatoes, such as russet or Yukon Gold. For boiling or steaming, choose waxy potatoes, such as red or fingerling potatoes. For carrots, choose firm, brightly colored carrots that are not too thick.
  • Cut the potatoes and carrots into evenly sized pieces. This will help them cook evenly. If the pieces are too small, they will overcook and become mushy. If the pieces are too large, they will take longer to cook and may not be cooked through.
  • Season the potatoes and carrots well. Salt and pepper are a good start, but you can also add other spices or herbs, such as garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, or rosemary.
  • Roast or boil the potatoes and carrots until they are tender. For roasting, cook the potatoes and carrots at a high temperature (400 degrees Fahrenheit or higher) until they are browned and tender. For boiling, cook the potatoes and carrots in a pot of boiling water until they are tender. You can check for doneness by piercing the potatoes and carrots with a fork. If the fork goes through easily, they are done.
  • Serve the potatoes and carrots hot. You can serve them as a side dish or as a main course. If you are serving them as a side dish, you can drizzle them with melted butter or olive oil. If you are serving them as a main course, you can top them with a protein, such as grilled chicken or fish.

Conclusion

Potatoes and carrots are a versatile and delicious vegetable duo that can be used in a variety of dishes. They are a good source of dietary fiber, potassium, and vitamin C. By following these tips, you can cook potatoes and carrots that are tender, flavorful, and nutritious. So next time you're looking for a healthy and satisfying side dish or main course, give potatoes and carrots a try!
