ROOT VEGETABLE GRATIN



Root Vegetable Gratin image

When I travel, I bring a stack of food magazines to read for inspiration. On a particular cross-country flight, I was prepping for a new season of my TV show and saw a recipe for a parsnip gratin. I thought, "Well, parsnips are root vegetables. I love root vegetables in general. What if I just do a bunch of root vegetables all together in a gratin?" A few days later, I was basking in the creamy, cheesy glory of my latest creation. You'll do the same. You can slice your root vegetables with a knife, but I recommend using my favorite kitchen utensil, the mandoline, and then taking care to spread the thin slices evenly. This dish transforms a quartet of ordinary roasted root vegetables that might not otherwise cohabit the same baking dish into old-fashioned, crowd-pleasing comfort food. Later, you can ask, "When was the last time anyone asked for more parsnips?"

Time 2h5m

Yield 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 large russet potatoes (about 1 1/2 pounds), peeled
1 large golden beet (about 1 pound), peeled
1 large fennel bulb (about 12 ounces), trimmed
2 large parsnips (about 10 ounces), peeled
2 teaspoons kosher salt
1 1/2 cups heavy cream
1 1/2 cups shredded Parmesan cheese (6 ounces)
Freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Lightly grease a 13- x 9-inch baking dish. Using a mandoline or sharp knife, cut the potatoes, beet, fennel and parsnips into 1/8-inch-thick slices. Toss together the vegetable slices, salt, and 3/4 cup of the cream in a large bowl.
  • 2. Spread half of the mixture evenly in the prepared baking dish. Top with 1 cup of the Parmesan. Top evenly with the remaining vegetable mixture. Pour the remaining 3/4 cup cream over the vegetables, and top with the remaining 1/2 cup Parmesan. Cover loosely with aluminum foil. Bake for 1 hour and 10 minutes.
  • 3. Uncover and bake until the vegetables are tender and the cheese is golden brown, another 20 to 25 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack; cool for 15 minutes before serving with some black pepper ground over the top.

Time 2h10m

Yield 8 to 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

Good olive oil
1 1/2 cups sliced yellow onion (1 large)
2 cups (1/4-inch-sliced) fennel, top and core removed
1 tablespoon minced garlic (3 cloves)
1 pound sweet potatoes, peeled and sliced 1/4 inch thick
1 pound celery root, peeled and sliced 1/4 inch thick
1 pound Yukon Gold potatoes, peeled and sliced 1/4 inch thick
2 1/2 cups heavy cream
1/2 cup chicken stock, preferably homemade
2 cups grated Gruyere cheese (6 ounces with rind)
2 teaspoons minced fresh thyme leaves
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 1/2 cups coarse fresh bread crumbs, crusts removed

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Butter a 13-by-10-by-2 1/2-inch baking dish.
  • Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large (12-inch) saute pan over medium heat, add the onion and fennel and cook for 10 minutes, tossing occasionally, until lightly browned and tender. Add the garlic and cook for one minute.
  • Meanwhile, in a large bowl, combine the onion mixture, sweet potatoes, celery root, Yukon Gold potatoes, cream, chicken stock, Gruyere, thyme, 1 tablespoon salt and 1 1/2 teaspoons pepper. Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish and press lightly so the vegetables lie flat all the way to the edge. Combine the bread crumbs and 2 tablespoons of olive oil and distribute evenly on top. Bake uncovered for 1 1/2 hours, until the vegetables are very tender when tested with a small knife and the top is browned and bubbly. Allow to set for 15 minutes and serve hot.
  • Make ahead: Bake in advance and reheat while the turkey rests, or assemble the dish, cover and refrigerate for up to 24 hours, then bake before serving.
