Fabulous & Easy Potato Casserole Side Dish image

Just a few words before I post my recipe: This is one of the best recipe sites I've found on the web and I've looked at dozens over the past 16 years. When I posted my 1st recipe, Blue Mill Tavern Loosemeat Sandwiches, last March, I never expected the response it got (36 reviews!). It's extremely gratifying to know by just sharing a recipe I've been able to give joy to others. Thanks to all of you who have written me and those who've posted a review. It's heartening to know so many of you are trying new things. I've been cooking all my life-I live to cook and cook to live. I feel like I've found some kindred spirits here. Here's another family favorite via my SIL in northern Minnesota. It's been enjoyed by dozens of hungry eaters at my table. If you're looking for low-fat, low-carb, keep on looking cuz this isn't it. This is sinfully delicious, to be savored, not regretted. Consider yourselves forewarned:-) It goes especially well with BBQ ribs, baked ham, dutch oven chicken and is terrific with fresh fried walleyed pike but you try it with whatever you like. It also makes a large amount so it works well for a family gathering or a holiday meal. This dish will not only really please your husband, it will pass muster with the toughest mother-in-law:-) Bon Appetit!

BOK CHOY, POTATO AND ONION SIDE DISH



Bok Choy, Potato and Onion Side Dish image

Not a stir-fry! East meets West in a simple side dish using bok choy given "body" with chopped potatoes, onions, and a little extra flavour. This is a very basic way of using Oriental cabbages other than in a stir-fry with soy sauce. The dish can be considerably enhanced if chopped bacon is added with the onion, and you might also want to up the spices by adding a chopped, seeded hot pepper or black pepper. Very tasty, and you'll never wonder whether to use those white ribs again: they are very useable!!

Categories     Potato

Time 45m

Yield 3-4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 red onion
2 tablespoons oil
1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
2 medium potatoes
2 tablespoons fresh ginger, finely chopped
1 teaspoon garlic, finely chopped
1 head bok choy (Oriental cabbage)
1 teaspoon flaked sea salt

Steps:

  • Peel and chop onion. Cut off only the root end off the bok choy, then separate the leaves, and wash thoroughly, as soil often sticks to the thick white stems.
  • Peel potatoes and chop, and prepare ginger and garlic.
  • Fry the onions in the oil, stirring, over high heat until they soften, then add the balsamic vinegar and stir. (Add a little more oil if necessary).
  • Add the chopped potatoes. Lower heat, but stir frequently to prevent sticking. After about 5 minutes add the ginger, garlic and salt.
  • Slice the bok choy from the stem parts to the green leaves, including all the white stems. Add to the pan. Stir, add the salt, and let saute without a lid for a while to prevent liquid forming.
  • After about 10 minutes turn heat to low and put on a lid at an angle. Gently fry until the vegetables are cooked, but it's nice if the bok choy stems are slightly al dente still.
  • As suggested: although this dish is quite flavourful as a side dish, you could add chopped bacon and a number of other ingredients, even mature cheese strewn over when it's cooked. Add black pepper or nutmeg, to taste.

Tips:

  • Choose the right potatoes: Different types of potatoes have different textures and flavors. For mashed potatoes, use starchy potatoes like Russet or Yukon Gold. For roasted potatoes, use firm potatoes like Yukon Gold or fingerling potatoes.
  • Cook the potatoes properly: Overcooked potatoes will be mushy and bland. For mashed potatoes, boil the potatoes until they are tender but still hold their shape. For roasted potatoes, roast them at a high temperature until they are crispy on the outside and tender on the inside.
  • Season the potatoes well: Potatoes are a blank canvas for flavor. Don't be afraid to season them generously with salt, pepper, and other herbs and spices. You can also add cheese, sour cream, or bacon to your potatoes for extra flavor.
  • Use fresh ingredients: Fresh herbs and spices will make your potato dish taste its best. If you can, use fresh garlic, onion, and parsley. You can also add fresh herbs like rosemary or thyme to your potatoes.
  • Serve the potatoes hot: Potato dishes are best served hot and fresh. If you are making mashed potatoes, keep them warm in a slow cooker or on a warming tray. If you are making roasted potatoes, serve them immediately after they come out of the oven.
