Mashed Potato And Broccoli Raab Pancakes Recipes

Steps:

• Bring a medium pot of salted water to a boil. Add the broccoli and cook until tender, about 10 minutes. Drain thoroughly.
• Put the potatoes in a medium pot, cover with cold water and add 2 tablespoons salt. Bring just to a simmer and simmer the potatoes, uncovered, until tender, about 45 minutes. Drain.
• Peel the potatoes and return them to the pot (if desired, pass them through a ricer or food mill after peeling). Add the broccoli. Mash the potatoes and broccoli with the milk and butter using a fork or potato masher. Stir in the chives, dill, parsley and 2 teaspoons salt; season with pepper.

Steps:

• In a large bowl, mix together the mashed potatoes, finely chopped broccoli raab, chives, baking powder, salt, pepper, Parmesan and flour. Beat the eggs and stir in.
• Begin heating a large heavy skillet over medium heat. Heat the oven to 300 degrees. Add 2 tablespoons of the oil and when it is hot carefully scoop up heaped tablespoons of the potato mixture and use a spoon or spatula to ease them out of the spoon into the pan. Gently flatten the mounds slightly with the back of a spoon or a spatula but don't worry if this is hard to do - if they stick -- because when you flip them over you can flatten them into pancakes. Brown on the first side - about 2 or 3 minutes - and using a spatula, flip the potato and broccoli raab mounds over and gently push them down so that they will be shaped like pancakes. Brown on the other side and remove to a baking sheet. Continue with the remaining potato mixture, adding oil to the pan as necessary.

Steps:

• Fill a 12-inch high-sided skillet with 2 inches of water, cover and bring to a boil. Trim 1/4 inch from the stem ends of the broccoli rabe (as they can be dried out) and discard.
• Add 1 tablespoon salt and the trimmed broccoli rabe to the boiling water. Boil until the stems are tender when pierced with a knife, 4 to 5 minutes. Remove with tongs to a colander to drain. When cool enough to handle, press out as much excess water as possible from the broccoli rabe, and then chop into 1- to 2-inch pieces. Reserve 1/2 cup of the cooking water.
• Quarter the potatoes and slice the garlic into thin slivers.
• Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. When the oil is hot, add the potatoes, cut-side down, and cook until browned, about 4 minutes. Turn with tongs or a slotted spoon to the other cut side and cook until browned, 3 to 4 minutes more.
• Lower the heat to medium, add the garlic and stir until it softens a bit, about 1 minute. Stir in the paprika until the potatoes are coated, about 30 seconds more. Season with 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper. Add the reserved cooking water and bring to a gentle simmer. Cover and cook the potatoes until tender when pierced with a knife, about 5 more minutes. If there is still a lot of water in the skillet, uncover, increase the heat and reduce until only 2 to 3 tablespoons remain, enough to coat the broccoli rabe. Add the chopped broccoli rabe to the skillet and toss to coat. Drizzle with a generous amount of olive oil and serve.

Steps:

• Combine potatoes, eggs, flour, and garlic powder in a bowl.
• Heat oil in a skillet over medium-high heat; fry potato mixture in skillet, pressing with a spatula to flatten evenly. Cover and cook until bottom is crispy, about 10 minutes; invert onto serving platter.

Steps:

• Combine the mashed potatoes, cheese, scallions, egg and 3 tablespoons of the flour in a large bowl (see Cook's Note). With your hands, divide the mixture into 12 portions. Roll each portion into a compact ball, and then flatten it into a pancake about 1/2-inch thick.
• Put the remaining 1/2 cup flour in a shallow dish and carefully coat each pancake in the flour.
• Heat 3 to 4 tablespoons of oil in a large saute pan over medium heat. (Add enough oil to thoroughly coat the bottom of the pan.)
• Fry the pancakes, in batches, until they're golden brown and crispy on both sides, 3 to 4 minutes. Add more oil to the pan as needed between batches. (Do not overcrowd the pan and do not flip the pancakes too soon or they won't develop a crisp crust.) Transfer the pancakes to a paper towel-lined plate and immediately sprinkle them with salt.
• Serve the potato pancakes topped with sour cream and garnished with additional chopped scallions.

Steps:

• In a bowl, combine broccoli and boiling water. Let stand for 5 minutes; drain thoroughly. In another bowl, beat eggs. Add onions, flour, salt and pepper; mix well. Add broccoli. Just before cooking, finely shred potato; add to broccoli mixture. , In a large skillet, heat about 1/4 in. of oil over medium-high heat. Pour batter by 1/2 cupfuls into skillet. Fry over medium heat for 3-4 minutes on each side or until lightly browned.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
• Butter a 8x12 baking dish.
• Whip together mashed potatoes, black pepper, salt, cream cheese, milk, egg and butter until smooth.
• Season with salt and pepper to taste.
• Fold in half of onions; spread over bottom and up of sides of prepared dish to form a shell.
• Bake for 20-25 minutes.
• Arrange hot broccoli in shell.
• Sprinkle cheese and remaining onions over top.
• Bake for 5 to 10 minutes more, or until done.
