Best 5 Seamus Mullens Pan Con Tomate Recipes

SHEPHERD'S PIE

Steps:

• Mashed potatoes, part 1: Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Peel the potatoes, cut them into quarters, place them in a large pot, and cover with plenty of cold water. Add salt, dried chili pepper, and bay leaves. Cover and bring to a boil, then remove lid and reduce to a simmer. Cook all the way through, about 20 minutes. Strain, reserving some water, and discard bay leaf and dried chili.
• Filling: Meanwhile, chop onion, carrots, celery, celery root, rosemary, thyme, and garlic as indicated above.
• Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a sauté pan over medium-high heat. Add the lamb and begin to brown. Add mustard, coriander, onions, carrots, celery, celery root, rosemary, and thyme, and combine carefully with a rubber spatula.
• When the vegetables have cooked slightly, add garlic and tomato paste. Mix carefully. Add red wine, reduce heat, and simmer 5-10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until everything is cooked through. Remove from heat and set aside.
• Mashed potatoes, part 2: When the potatoes are done, drain them (reserving some cooking liquid and discarding the bay leaves and dried chili) and return them to the pot. Mash them with a potato masher, then mash in butter, lemon zest, olive oil, and horseradish. Stir in grated Cheddar. Transfer lamb mixture to a deep ovenproof baking dish and spread evenly. Taste for seasoning. Spread a layer of mashed potatoes over the lamb mixture, and run through the top with a fork to create little ridges. Bake until potatoes are golden and the lamb is hot, about 15 to 20 minutes.

• Assembly: Garnish with parsley, mint, and a drizzle of extra-virgin olive oil. Serve immediately.

PAN CON TOMATE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 500 degrees F. Place the bread on a rimmed baking sheet and toast for 5 minutes. Flip bread and toast until golden and crispy, about 2 minutes.
• In the meantime, cut the tomatoes in half and grate the cut side of the tomato on the large holes of a box grater into a shallow bowl. Grate in the garlic clove and add the vinegar, olive oil and 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt. Stir to combine.
• Spoon the tomato mixture on top of each slice of bread, making sure to cover the toast completely from edge to edge. Drizzle the toast with a generous amount of olive oil and sprinkle with flaky salt.

Steps:

• Grate the tomatoes on a box grater. Using a microplane, grate the garlic onto the tomatoes. Season with kosher salt, the olive oil and the vinegar, and stir lightly to combine.
• Toast or grill the bread until it is lightly charred.
• Place a heaping tablespoon of the grated tomato mixture onto the bread, then wipe most of it off with the spoon. Drizzle with olive oil again, add the sea salt, then serve immediately.

PANEER CON TOMATE

Steps:

• Using the large holes of a box grater, grate the tomatoes directly over a serving plate, pressing down with your palm so that all of the pulp goes through, and you're left with just the thin outer skin. Get rid of the skin and season the pulp generously with the salt and pepper.
• Cut the paneer into strips about 1-inch thick, then rotate the block and cut the strips to make bite-size squares.
• Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a large nonstick pan over medium and add the paneer, letting it brown lightly, about 1 minute. Flip the pieces to get the other side a little brown, about 1 minute, then pile the paneer onto the tomato pulp.
• In the same pan, heat the remaining 2 tablespoons oil, then add the mustard seeds and cumin seeds. When the mustard seeds start to pop, crumple the curry leaves and add them to the pan, shaking it gently to sauté the leaves. Tip it all directly over the paneer and serve warm, or at room temperature.

PAN CON TOMATE

Steps:

• Cut 2 tomatoes in half crosswise. Place a box grater in a shallow bowl and grate the tomato flesh from the cut sides, pushing through the large holes. You should have 1 cup or so of coarse tomato purée. Set purée aside, and discard tomato skins.
• Cut remaining large tomatoes into 1/4-inch slices. Cut cherry tomatoes in half. Set aside.
• Toast the bread until nicely browned and crisp. (Toasting over a charcoal grill yields a rich, smoky flavor, but a toaster, toaster oven or broiler works just as well.)
• With your fingers, rub the top of each toast with a garlic clove. You will see the cloves get smaller as the garlic is dispersed, pushed into the bread. (For a less garlicky toast, press lightly when rubbing.)
• Place toasts on a platter or individual plates. Spoon and spread a heaping tablespoon of tomato purée over each toast. Then arrange tomato slices and cherry tomatoes randomly on top.
• Sprinkle generously with salt, pepper and a tablespoon of extra-virgin olive oil per toast. Garnish with whole or torn basil leaves, if using.
