SPINACH AND EGG SANDWICHES



Spinach and Egg Sandwiches image

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

4 plum tomatoes, halved lengthwise
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
4 English muffins, split
2 1/2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 shallot or 1/4 red onion, thinly sliced
1/4 pound sliced Canadian bacon, cut into thin strips
8 cups baby spinach (about 8 ounces)
4 large eggs
1/3 cup shredded extra-sharp cheddar cheese

Steps:

  • Preheat the broiler. Arrange the tomatoes cut-side up on one half of a rimmed baking sheet and season with salt and pepper. Broil the tomatoes until they begin to soften, about 2 minutes. Remove from the broiler. Arrange the English muffins on the other half of the baking sheet and brush with 1 tablespoon olive oil. Set aside.
  • Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the shallot and cook, stirring, until soft, about 2 minutes. Add the Canadian bacon and cook, stirring, until lightly browned, about 3 minutes. Stir in the spinach until wilted; season with salt and pepper. Transfer the mixture to a bowl; keep warm. Wipe out the skillet.
  • Heat the remaining 1/2 tablespoon olive oil in the skillet over medium-high heat. Crack the eggs into the pan, season with salt and pepper, and fry until the whites are set but the yolks are still runny, about 5 minutes. Remove the pan from the heat. Top the tomatoes with the cheese. Return the tomatoes and English muffins to the broiler; broil until the cheese is melted, 2 to 3 minutes. Divide the English muffins among plates, then top each with some of the spinach mixture and a fried egg. Serve with the broiled tomatoes.

SPINACH AND EGG DUMPLINGS



Spinach and Egg Dumplings image

Recipe for homemade vegetarian dumplings filled with spinach and eggs.

Provided by Helen You

Categories     Lunar New Year     Spinach     Egg     Vegetarian

Yield Makes 24 dumplings

Number Of Ingredients 9

3 ounces spinach (ideally Chinese water spinach; about 2 cups packed)
8 large eggs
2½ tablespoons skim milk
1½ teaspoons kosher salt
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 teaspoon sesame oil
1 teaspoon oyster sauce
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
24 Boiled Dumpling Wrappers

Steps:

  • Bring a medium pot of water to a boil over high heat. Add the spinach and cook for 30 seconds, until it turns a vivid green, then, using a slotted spoon, transfer it to a bowl of ice water. Chill thoroughly and drain. Wrap the spinach in a clean cheesecloth or tea towel to wring out excess moisture, then roughly chop it and set it aside.
  • In a small bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, and ¼ teaspoon of the salt and set aside. In a medium nonstick skillet, heat the vegetable oil over medium-low heat until a few drops of water added to the pan sizzle and evaporate. Pour in the egg mixture and cook, stirring occasionally, for 4 minutes, just until the eggs form fluffy curds but have not fully set; they should still be slightly runny. Remove from the heat and let cool in a medium bowl.
  • Use your hands to gently fold the eggs, sesame oil, oyster sauce, remaining 1¼ teaspoons of salt, and pepper together until fully combined. Gently fold in the spinach and mix until fully incorporated.
  • Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Meanwhile, make the dumplings. Holding a wrapper in your palm, use a fork to add about 1 tablespoon of the filling to the center of the wrapper, then lightly pat down the filling with the fork to get rid of any air bubbles.
  • Fold the dumpling into the round yuan bao shape: Cradle the wrapper in your hands and fold the edge closest to you over the filling. Lightly squeeze the dumpling to push out any air bubbles. Clasp one end of the dumpling between your thumb and index finger to pinch it shut; repeat on the other side of the dumpling. Cradle the dumpling in your palms, clasping the sealed edge between your thumbs and index fingers, and squeeze it shut while pushing inward, making sure to squeeze out any air bubbles. The dumpling's belly should form a teardrop shape between your thumbs, which will create the yuan bao shape. Inspect the dumpling for any fissures that could rupture during cooking and pinch them shut. Repeat with the rest of the wrappers.
  • Working in batches, add the dumplings to the pot, 6 at a time. Boil for 2 minutes on high, then reduce the heat to medium-high and cook for 1 minute, then reduce the heat again to medium and cook for 2 more minutes. The dumplings are ready a minute or so after they rise to the surface; their skins will turn puffy. Using a slotted spoon, gently transfer the dumplings to a plate and serve immediately. Bring the water back to a boil over high heat and repeat with the remaining dumplings.

SPINACH DUMPLINGS



Spinach Dumplings image

This recipe is from my favorite cookbook, a book of family recipes collected for me by my greatest cooking inspiration, my dad. This is his description of the recipe: "Spinach Dumplings have become a favorite at special dinners such as Thanksgiving and Christmas. I first made these while trying to impress a date before you were born. The meal was great, she wasn't. Dumped the girl, kept the dumplings."

Provided by Liz with a Z

Categories     Spinach

Time 15m

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 (10 ounce) package frozen chopped spinach
1/2 cup chopped onion
1 cup whole milk ricotta cheese
1 cup parmesan cheese
2 eggs
2 cups all-purpose flour
8 cups chicken broth
1/2 cup butter

Steps:

  • Thaw and squeeze spinach to remove most of the moisture.
  • Add 2 tbsp butter to medium hot pan and toss onions and spinach together until thoroughly warm and quite dry.
  • Transfer to bowl and add ricotta first, stir together. (this cools the spinach and prevents the eggs from cooking when added).
  • Add eggs, parmesan, and flour.
  • Spoon 3/4" balls from the mix and roll in flour to coat.
  • Heat the chicken broth to boil, then simmer.
  • Add dumplings to broth and cook 10-12 minutes. (make sure the broth does not boil as this could undo the dumplings).
  • Serve dumplings in a bowl with melted butter and a dusting of Parmesan cheese.

Tips:

  • Use fresh spinach for the best flavor and texture. If using frozen spinach, thaw it completely before using.
  • Chop the spinach finely so that it cooks evenly.
  • Use a large bowl to mix the dumpling ingredients. This will help to prevent the dough from becoming too sticky.
  • Wet your hands before shaping the dumplings. This will help to prevent the dough from sticking to your hands.
  • Cook the dumplings in a large pot of boiling water. This will help to prevent them from sticking together.
  • Serve the dumplings immediately with your favorite dipping sauce.
