A fantastic one-dish meal, our egg casserole with spinach and potatoes is naturally gluten-free and vegetarian, making it perfect for a gathering with mixed dietary needs.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Breakfast & Brunch Recipes

Time 1h30m

Number Of Ingredients 10

3 tablespoons unsalted butter, plus more, softened, for brushing
1 onion, chopped (2 cups)
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper

2 teaspoons fresh thyme leaves
1 pound Yukon Gold potatoes, peeled and cut into a 1/2-inch dice (3 cups)
1 1/2 cups whole milk

Meanwhile, in a large bowl, whisk eggs with 1 1/2 teaspoons salt and nutmeg. Stir cooled potato mixture and half of cheese into eggs.

Uncover, sprinkle evenly with remaining half of cheese, and continue baking until set and golden brown in places, 15 to 25 minutes more (if the top is browning too quickly, tent with foil). Let cool slightly before serving.

CRISPY POTATOES WITH CHEESY EGGS



Crispy Potatoes with Cheesy Eggs image

Provided by Sandra Lee

Time 40m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

4 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 teaspoon extra-virgin olive oil
2 large russet potatoes
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 small shallot, finely diced
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 cup heavy cream
2 tablespoons whiskey, such as Crown Royal
One 8-ounce piece brie, rind removed and cut into small pieces
6 large eggs
Black lumpfish caviar, for garnish
Finely chopped fresh chives, for garnish

Steps:

  • Put a medium nonstick skillet over medium heat and add 1 tablespoon of the butter and the oil. Peel and grate the potatoes on the large holes of a box grater or in a food processor. Sprinkle the potatoes well with salt and pepper and toss to coat. When the skillet is hot, add the potatoes, pressing them down and flattening them out to evenly cover the bottom of the skillet. Cook until the potatoes are well browned on the bottom, monitoring the heat as you go so they don't burn. Carefully flip over the pancake, keeping it in one piece, and brown it on the other side. Remove to a paper-towel-lined plate and keep warm.
  • While the potatoes are cooking, put a small skillet over medium heat and add 2 tablespoons of the butter. When the butter has melted, add the shallot and cook until it softens. Sprinkle over the flour and cook for a minute or 2. Pour in the cream and bring to a boil. Add the whiskey and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer for a few minutes until it thickens a bit. Turn off the heat and add half the cheese. Stir to melt the cheese. Taste and adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper. Cover and keep warm.
  • In another medium skillet over medium-low heat, add the remaining tablespoon butter. Whisk the eggs well, and sprinkle them with salt and pepper. Pour the eggs into the pan, add the remaining cheese and reduce the heat to low. Cook slowly until the cheese is melted and the eggs are cooked through but soft.
  • Place the potato pancake on a serving plate. Top with the cheesy eggs and pour on the sauce. Dollop on the caviar and sprinkle over the chives. Cut into 4 slices and serve.
