SEAMUS MULLEN'S PAN CON TOMATE

Pan con tomate is traditionally a humble dish, a way to make a single tomato and some old bread serve a family for lunch. For Tertulia's version, use a box grater to shred the best tomato you can find. Microplane some garlic into it. Add salt and a big drizzle of fruity Spanish olive oil, then a little less of sherry vinegar. You'll heap this mixture onto a few thick slices of bread, and then scrape most of the tomato off. Add more olive oil and sprinkle with flaky sea salt.

SHEPHERD'S PIE



Shepherd's Pie image

Shepherd's Pie is one of those classic, traditional comfort foods that reminds me of my childhood. My grandmother used to make it for us all the time. She would use canned vegetables, but this is an updated version with all fresh vegetables, ground lamb instead of beef, and the extra bonus of aromatic rosemary and some horseradish for a kick.

Time 1h15m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 26

2 pounds Yukon gold potatoes, peeled and quartered
3 tablespoons kosher salt
1 dried chili pepper
2 bay leaves
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
Zest of 1 lemon
2 tablespoons grated fresh horseradish
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 cup grated sharp Cheddar, preferably Cabot Clothbound
Salt and freshly ground pepper
1 Spanish onion, diced
2 carrots, peeled and diced
2 ribs celery, diced
1 celery root, peeled and diced
2 tablespoons minced rosemary
2 sprigs thyme, leaves minced
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 pound ground lamb
1/4 cup olive oil
1 teaspoon mustard seed
1 teaspoon coriander seed
2 tablespoons tomato paste
1/2 cup red wine
2 tablespoons chopped parsley
2 tablespoons chopped mint
extra-virgin olive oil

Steps:

  • Mashed potatoes, part 1: Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Peel the potatoes, cut them into quarters, place them in a large pot, and cover with plenty of cold water. Add salt, dried chili pepper, and bay leaves. Cover and bring to a boil, then remove lid and reduce to a simmer. Cook all the way through, about 20 minutes. Strain, reserving some water, and discard bay leaf and dried chili.
  • Filling: Meanwhile, chop onion, carrots, celery, celery root, rosemary, thyme, and garlic as indicated above.
  • Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a sauté pan over medium-high heat. Add the lamb and begin to brown. Add mustard, coriander, onions, carrots, celery, celery root, rosemary, and thyme, and combine carefully with a rubber spatula.
  • When the vegetables have cooked slightly, add garlic and tomato paste. Mix carefully. Add red wine, reduce heat, and simmer 5-10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until everything is cooked through. Remove from heat and set aside.
  • Mashed potatoes, part 2: When the potatoes are done, drain them (reserving some cooking liquid and discarding the bay leaves and dried chili) and return them to the pot. Mash them with a potato masher, then mash in butter, lemon zest, olive oil, and horseradish. Stir in grated Cheddar. Transfer lamb mixture to a deep ovenproof baking dish and spread evenly. Taste for seasoning. Spread a layer of mashed potatoes over the lamb mixture, and run through the top with a fork to create little ridges. Bake until potatoes are golden and the lamb is hot, about 15 to 20 minutes.

  • While the dish is baking, chop the parsley and mint for garnish.
  • Assembly: Garnish with parsley, mint, and a drizzle of extra-virgin olive oil. Serve immediately.

Tips:

  • Use ripe tomatoes: The riper the tomatoes, the sweeter and more flavorful the pan con tomate will be.
  • Choose a good bread: A crusty bread with a slightly chewy interior is ideal for pan con tomate. Look for a bread that is made with high-quality flour and has a good flavor.
  • Don't skimp on the olive oil: Olive oil is essential for giving pan con tomate its characteristic flavor and texture. Use a good-quality extra-virgin olive oil that has a fruity, peppery flavor.
  • Season to taste: Pan con tomate should be seasoned with salt and pepper to taste. You can also add a pinch of garlic powder or smoked paprika for extra flavor.
  • Serve immediately: Pan con tomate is best served immediately after it is made. The bread will start to get soggy if it sits for too long.

Conclusion:

Pan con tomate is a simple but delicious dish that is perfect for a quick and easy meal or snack. It is a great way to use up ripe tomatoes and it is also a very affordable dish. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a flavorful and satisfying meal that the whole family will enjoy.
