Jerusalem Artichoke And Carrot Gratin Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees with rack positioned in the center. Squeeze the juice from two lemon halves into a medium bowl of water. Peel and cut the Jerusalem artichokes lengthwise into thirds, and add to the acidulated water. Butter a shallow 7 1/2-by-11 1/2-inch ovenproof baking dish, and set aside.
• Place the potatoes, carrots, garlic, and 2 tablespoons parsley in a large bowl. Remove the Jerusalem artichokes from the water, pat dry, and add to the bowl. Sprinkle generously with salt and pepper. Toss to combine, and arrange the vegetables in an even layer in the prepared dish. Dot with the butter.
• Pour cream into a small saucepan; heat over medium-high heat just until it comes to a boil. Pour hot cream over vegetables; cover dish tightly with aluminum foil. Place the dish on a rimmed baking sheet to catch any cream that might bubble over. Transfer both baking sheet and dish to oven, and cook until potatoes begin to soften, about 30 minutes.
• Reduce oven temperature to 400 degrees. Remove aluminum foil; stir vegetables so they are coated with cream. Continue cooking until the tip of a knife easily pierces potatoes and artichokes, about 30 minutes more.
• Preheat the broiler. Using the large holes of a box grater, grate the cheese, and sprinkle over the gratin. Place dish under broiler, and cook just until the cheese is golden brown and crusty. Sprinkle with remaining tablespoon parsley, and serve hot.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 375 degrees. Scrub Jerusalem artichokes, and slice 1/4 inch thick. Bring milk and 1 cup water to a boil. Reduce to a simmer, add slices, and cook until tender but crisp, 8 minutes. Drain, and arrange in a buttered baking dish.
• In a small saucepan, bring cream, garlic, nutmeg, salt and pepper to a boil. Remove garlic, and pour mixture evenly over artichokes. Sprinkle with cheese. Bake in upper level of oven until bubbling and lightly browned, about 20 minutes.

Steps:

• Peel the artichokes carefully with a sharp knife or peeler, cut them into 2cm chunks, then place into a bowl of cold water with the lemon juice to prevent discolouring.
• Place a large saucepan over a medium heat and add the butter. When it begins to sizzle, add the shallots and a pinch of salt. Stir the shallots to coat them with the butter and cook for 5 mins until they begin to soften. Add the bay and thyme leaves and drained artichokes, then stir to mix them all together.
• Add 200ml water to the pan, bring the mixture to a simmer, then reduce the heat and cover so that the artichokes cook gently for about 10-12 mins. When they are beginning to soften, add the cream, bring to a simmer again and cook until the sauce is reduced slightly and the artichokes are tender. Season the mixture with a little pepper, then remove from the heat and discard the bay leaves. At this point, you can chill the mixture, and finish the dish when you are ready. It will keep happily in the fridge for a few hrs.
• Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Place the smoked haddock cubes in a gratin dish big enough to hold them in a single layer. Pour over the artichokes and sauce, spreading the mixture out evenly. Top with breadcrumbs and a few small dots of butter. Place the gratin dish on a baking sheet and bake for 30 mins, until the top is golden brown and bubbling.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450 degrees. In a large saucepan, bring artichokes and milk just to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer until crisp-tender, about 10 minutes. Drain in a colander set over a bowl; reserve 3/4 cup milk.
• In a large bowl, whisk reserved milk with creme fraiche, lemon juice, 1/4 cup cheese, thyme, salt, and pepper. Add artichokes, potatoes, shallots, and chestnuts; stir to combine.
• Pour mixture into a 1 1/2-quart gratin dish; cover tightly with foil. Bake on a baking sheet until artichokes are tender when pierced, about 1 hour. Remove foil; sprinkle top of gratin with bread pieces and remaining 3/4 cup cheese. Continue baking, uncovered, until golden brown, 8 to 10 minutes more. Serve warm.

Steps:

• Scrub the sunchokes and slice into 1/4 thick slices.
• In a 13-inch-x-9-inch a baking dish, add melted butter.
• Arrange the sliced chokes in casserole so that they overlap slightly.
• Sprinkle with salt, black pepper and garlic powder.
• If Using: Mix together onions & green onions; sprinkle over chokes.
• Sprinkle with Parmeasn chesse.
• Bake in a preheated 400 degree oven for about 18 to 20 minutes or until light golden crust begins to form on top.
• Remove from from oven, cover with release foil and let set for about 5 minutes before serving.
• The Jerusalem Artichokes should be slightly crunchy.

Steps:

• In a large saucepan, combine Jerusalem artichokes and milk. Bring to a boil, and reduce to a simmer, and cook for 10 minutes. Drain, reserving 3/4 cups of the milk.
• Preheat oven to 450 degrees. In a medium bowl, whisk creme fraiche, reserved milk, lemon juice, 1/4 cup Gruyere, thyme, salt, and pepper. Add artichokes, potatoes, chestnuts, shallots; gently mix to combine. Transfer to a 6-cup shallow baking dish, and cover tightly with parchment-lined aluminum foil. Place on a rimmed baking sheet, and bake until artichokes are tender, about 1 hour. Remove foil, and sprinkle with breadcrumbs and remaining 3/4 cup cheese. Bake, uncovered, until golden brown, 8 to 10 minutes. Serve warm.

Steps:

• Peel Jerusalem artichokes and cut into 1-inch pieces. In a stainless-steel or enameled saucepan combine artichokes, milk, and enough water to cover artichokes by 1 inch and simmer until tender, about 30 minutes. (Milk will help prevent artichokes from discoloring.) While artichokes are cooking, in a large skillet heat 2 tablespoons butter over moderately high heat until foam subsides and sauté onion, garlic, and 1 tablespoon sage until onion is golden, about minutes.
• Preheat oven to 425° F.
• Drain artichokes and in a food processor pulse with onion mixture and Parmesan until smooth. Spoon purée into a 2-quart buttered gratin dish. In large skillet melt remaining 3 tablespoons butter over moderate heat and sauté bread crumbs with remaining 2 tablespoons sage until golden, about 5 minutes. Season bread crumbs with salt and pepper and sprinkle evenly over purée. Gratin may be prepared up to this point 2 days ahead and chilled covered.
• Bake gratin in middle of oven until hot and bread crumbs are a shade darker, about 20 minutes, and garnish with fried sage leaves.
• To make fried sage leaves:
• In a small skillet heat 1/8 inch oil over moderately high heat until hot but not smoking and fry sage leaves, 1 at a time, about 3 seconds, until crisp, transferring with a slotted spoon to paper towels to drain. Sprinkle sage leaves with coarse salt.
