Italian Broccoli Potato Gratin Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Butter an 8-by-8-inch baking dish.
• Melt the butter in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add the garlic and cook, stirring, for 30 seconds. Add the potatoes, broccoli stems, cream, thyme, nutmeg, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat and cook, stirring, until the potatoes have absorbed some of the cream and the mixture thickens slightly, 1 to 2 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in 1 cup of the Gruyere.
• Transfer the mixture to the prepared baking dish and shake to distribute the potatoes and broccoli evenly. Top with the remaining 1 cup Gruyere. Cover with foil and bake until the potatoes are fork-tender, about 35 minutes. Uncover and continue to bake until brown and bubbly, about 15 minutes more. Remove from the oven and let cool 10 minutes before serving.

Steps:

• Place a steamer basket into a multi-functional pressure cooker (such as Instant Pot®). Add potatoes to the basket, then lay broccolini on top. Pour 1 1/2 cups water over the vegetables. Close and lock the lid. Select high pressure according to manufacturer's instructions; set timer for 3 minutes. Allow 5 to 10 minutes for pressure to build.
• Release pressure carefully using the quick-release method according to manufacturer's instructions, about 5 minutes. Unlock and remove the lid. Transfer broccolini and potatoes to a serving bowl and let cool.
• Meanwhile, whisk olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, oregano, salt, and pepper together in a small bowl. Pour dressing over broccolini and potatoes. Serve immediately or cover and refrigerate, removing from the refrigerator 1 hour before serving.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450 degrees, with rack in upper third. In a food processor, pulse bread and 1 tablespoon oil until large crumbs form; season with salt and pepper. Set aside.
• In a large saucepan, heat remaining 2 tablespoons oil over medium. Whisk in flour; cook, stirring constantly, 1 minute. Gradually whisk in milk. Bring to a boil; add broccoli. Reduce to a simmer. Cook, stirring occasionally, until broccoli is tender, 15 to 20 minutes. Remove from heat; stir in 3/4 cup cheese.
• Transfer mixture to a shallow 1 1/2 quart baking dish; top with breadcrumbs and remaining cheese. Bake until breadcrumbs are golden, 6 to 8 minutes. Let rest 5 minutes before serving.

Steps:

• In 4-quart saucepan, place broccoli, potatoes, and water. On high heat, cover and heat until boiling. Then reduce heat to medium-low and cook, covered, 17 to 20 minutes, or until potatoes and broccoli are very tender, stirring once halfway through cooking.
• Meanwhile, preheat broiler and set oven rack 6 inches from source of heat.
• Drain vegetables in colander set over large bowl, reserving 1/4 cup vegetable cooking liquid.
• Return vegetables to saucepan & mash with a potato masher, adding some reserved cooking liquid if mixture seems dry.
• Stir in nutmeg, 1/4 cup Parmesan,salt and pepper.
• Spread vegetable mixture in a shallow, broiler-safe 1- to 1 1/2-quart baking dish; sprinkle with remaining Parmesan.
• Place dish in oven and broil 2 to 3 minutes or until Parmesan is browned.
