SWEET POTATO-GREEN ONION PANCAKES WITH POACHED EGGS, HOLIDAY HAM AND PEPPER JAM



Sweet Potato-Green Onion Pancakes with Poached Eggs, Holiday Ham and Pepper Jam image

Provided by Bobby Flay

Categories     main-dish

Time 50m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 large sweet potato, peeled and coarsely grated
2 large eggs, lightly beaten
1/2 small Spanish onion, finely grated
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
2 green onions (dark green and light green parts only), thinly sliced
Unsalted butter, for frying
Canola oil, for frying
3 tablespoons distilled white vinegar
4 large eggs
1/2 cup pepper jelly
8 ounces glazed baked ham, thinly sliced

Steps:

  • For the pancakes: Combine 4 cups cold water and 1 tablespoon kosher salt in a large bowl and stir until the salt dissolves. Stir in the sweet potato and let sit for 15 minutes. Drain, then dump onto a large piece of cheesecloth and wring out as much water as possible.
  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Whisk together the eggs, onion and some pepper in a large bowl. Add the sweet potato and flour, and mix until combined. Fold in the green onions.
  • Heat a few tablespoons each of butter and oil until shimmering in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Using a scant 1/4 cup per pancake, add the sweet potato mixture to the pan, leaving some space in between. Flatten slightly and cook until golden brown on both sides, about 3 minutes per side. Drain on paper towels, then transfer the pancakes to a baking sheet and place in the oven for 5 minutes to finish cooking.
  • For the eggs: Fill a high-sided skillet halfway with water and bring to a boil over medium-high heat; add the vinegar. Line a plate with paper towels. Break each egg into a little ramekin or cup.
  • One at a time, slip the eggs into the water, leaving space between them; adjust the heat to a bare simmer. Cook until the whites are set and the yolks still runny, about 4 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer the eggs to paper towels to blot off the water.
  • To serve: Put the pancakes on a serving platter. Top 4 of them with a smear of pepper jelly, a few slices of ham and a poached egg. Season with salt and pepper. Top with another pancake to make sandwiches (see Cook's Note).

Provided by Bonnie G 2

Categories     Breakfast

Time 30m

Yield 7 Pancakes, 7 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 15

2 cups all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons packed brown sugar

1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
1/4 teaspoon ground allspice
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1 egg
1 3/4 cups 2% low-fat milk
1/2 cup canned sweet potatoes, mashed
2 tablespoons butter, melted
12 ounces hot caramel ice cream topping, warmed

  • Use fresh, high-quality ingredients for the best flavor.
