POTATO, BEETROOT AND SWEET POTATO GRATIN



Potato, Beetroot and Sweet Potato Gratin image

If you are looking for a sweet potato dish that looks beautiful and isn't loaded with brown sugar and marshmallows, this is it. From the Australian Women's Weekly. An excellent winter side dish with roast meat or as a vegetarian main course. I used lite evap instead of cream, and baked ricotta with chillies and rosemary. DH & I loved it-- the leftovers made a wonderful lunch to take to work. BTW, beetroot translates to red beets in the USA.

Yield Makes 10 to 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 to 3 pounds white turnips, peeled and sliced 1/4 inch thick
2 to 3 pounds sweet potatoes, peeled and sliced 1/4 inch thick
1/4 pound (1 stick) unsalted butter
1 to 2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh tarragon leaves
Salt
Freshly ground black pepper
1 cup grated imported Parmesan cheese
1 cup bread crumbs
2 cups heavy cream

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F. Butter a 3-quart casserole.
  • To blanch the turnips, bring a large pot of water to the boil. Add the sliced turnips and cook 5 minutes. Remove them and drain thoroughly in a strainer.
  • Gently combine the turnips and sweet potatoes. Place a layer of the vegetables in the casserole and dot with half the butter. Sprinkle generously with tarragon, salt, and pepper, and cover with half of the Parmesan. Make another layer. Top with the bread crumbs and pour the cream around the sides. Dot with the remaining butter and Parmesan. Bake until the vegetables are soft but not mushy, 1 to 1 1/2 hours.
  • The gratin can be made ahead several days, or frozen for up to 3 months. Let defrost in the refrigerator and reheat for 30 to 45 minutes in the oven, or reheat in the microwave.
  • Variation
  • Omit the sweet potatoes and double the amount of turnips.

Tips:

  • Choose the right potatoes: Waxy potatoes, such as Yukon Gold or fingerling potatoes, hold their shape well and are less likely to fall apart during baking.
  • Slice the vegetables evenly: This will help them cook evenly.
  • Don't overcrowd the baking dish: Leave some space between the vegetables so that they can cook evenly.
  • Use a good quality cheese: A sharp cheddar or Gruyère cheese will add a lot of flavor to the gratin.
  • Bake until golden brown: The gratin is done when the vegetables are tender and the cheese is melted and bubbly.

Conclusion:

Potato, beetroot, and sweet potato gratin is a delicious and versatile dish that can be served as a main course or a side dish. It's perfect for a special occasion or a weeknight meal. With its colorful vegetables and creamy cheese sauce, this gratin is sure to please everyone at the table.
