Roasted Potatoes And Cauliflower With Chives Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450 degrees F.
• Cut potatoes in half, about ½ inch pieces. In a large Ziploc bag, toss potatoes, garlic, a few sprays of cooking spray to coat, and salt and pepper to taste.
• Put potatoes in a glass baking dish and roast, uncovered, for about 15 minutes, turning occasionally.
• While potatoes are roasting, put cauliflower in the same Ziploc bag, toss with more salt and pepper to taste, and a few sprays of cooking spray to coat.
• When 15 minutes are up, stir the cauliflower into the potatoes, mixing well. Roast for 10-15 minutes more, until cauliflower is tender and starting to golden.
• Toss with fresh chives and serve with sour cream if desired!

Steps:

• Peel the potatoes, with a melon-ball cutter scoop out as many balls as possible from them, and in a jelly-roll pan toss the balls with the oil and salt and pepper to taste. Roast the potatoes in the middle of a preheated 450°F. oven, turning them occasionally, for 15 minutes. Add the cauliflower, toss the mixture well, and roast it for 10 minutes, or until the cauliflower is tender and golden in spots. Toss the vegetables with the sliced chives and salt and pepper to taste and serve them garnished with the whole chives.

Steps:

• Make the gnocchi: Heat oven to 450 degrees. Wrap cauliflower and potato separately in aluminum foil. Roast on a baking sheet until tender, 1 hour. Unwrap and let cool slightly. Cut cauliflower into 4 equal pieces and transfer to a large bowl. Halve potato lengthwise and scoop out flesh into bowl; discard skin.
• Press roasted cauliflower and potato through a ricer onto a clean work surface. Sprinkle 3/4 cup flour and the salt evenly on top and set the yolk on the vegetables. Using a bench scraper or long side of a metal spatula, cut into the mixture, folding over and blending in the flour and yolk into the riced cauliflower mixture, until well incorporated, dusting work surface with flour occasionally to prevent sticking. Gather mixture into a ball and gently knead a few times to form a soft dough. Cut into 2 equal pieces.
• Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Meanwhile, working with one piece of dough at a time, roll into a 3/4-inch-thick log that is about 24 inches long. Using a sharp knife, cut into 1-inch pieces and transfer gnocchi to a lightly floured baking sheet. Repeat with remaining dough.
• Add half the gnocchi to boiling water and cook until they start to float, then simmer just until puffed and cooked through, 1 1/2 to 2 minutes longer. (Do pay attention: If the gnocchi are boiled too long, they will start to disintegrate.) Using a spider or slotted spoon, transfer gnocchi to an oiled baking sheet and roll to generously coat in oil to prevent gnocchi from sticking to one another. Repeat with remaining gnocchi.
• In a large nonstick skillet, melt 4 tablespoons butter over medium heat. Add half the gnocchi and half the capers and season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until gnocchi is golden and crispy, about 5 minutes. Stir in half of radishes and half of lemon juice (it may splatter). Divide in 2 shallow bowls and top with chives. Repeat with remaining butter, gnocchi, capers, radishes, lemon juice and chives.

Steps:

• In a 6- to 8-quart slow cooker, combine the potatoes, cauliflower, beans, onion, garlic, vegetable stock, butter, wine, thyme, garlic powder and 1½ teaspoons kosher salt. Cover and cook until the vegetables are very tender, about 8 hours on low.
• Remove and discard the thyme sprig, and turn off the slow cooker. Add the lemon juice. To make a completely smooth and creamy soup, purée the ingredients using an immersion blender. (Or, purée the soup in a blender in two batches, transferring the puréed soup to a different pot.) To make a textured, chunky soup, smash the ingredients using a potato masher in the slow cooker. Stir in the sour cream and chives. Taste and add additional salt if necessary. Serve in bowls topped with black pepper, crushed potato chips and shredded Cheddar. For leftovers, gently reheat the soup on the stovetop or in the microwave until it just barely bubbles around the edges; don't let it boil or the sour cream will break.
