CAULIFLOWER AND PARSNIP GRATIN

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Add the cauliflower and parsnips to a large pot of salted boiling water. Cook to soften, 4 minutes. Drain and rinse under cold water in the sink.
• Add the butter to a large saucepan or braising pan over medium-high heat. Once the butter is foaming, add the shallots and saute until tender, about 3 minutes. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Stir in the flour and cook until pale blonde and pasty, 2 to 3 minutes. Slowly whisk in the warm milk, making sure no lumps from the flour remain. The sauce should begin to thicken up as it begins to simmer. Once the sauce becomes thick, turn the heat to low, and add the Cheddar in handfuls. Stir until melted and season with hot sauce. Add the drained cauliflower and parsnips into the cheese sauce and stir to coat.
• Mix together the breadcrumbs, Parmesan, olive oil, parsley and some salt and pepper in a small bowl. Top the casserole with the breadcrumb mixture. Bake until bubbling and golden, 20 minutes. Let rest 5 minutes before serving.

ROOT VEGETABLE GRATIN

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Spray a 9-by-13-inch baking dish with nonstick cooking spray.
• Combine the heavy whipping cream, chicken stock, butter, thyme, garlic and Parmesan rind in a small saucepot. Place over medium-low heat and cook just until simmering, 10 to 12 minutes. Turn off the heat and whisk in the flour. Strain the cream mixture through a colander into a container with a pour spout and discard the thyme stems, garlic and cheese rind.
• Spread the potato rounds in an even layer in the bottom of the prepared baking dish. Pour a third of the cream mixture over the potatoes. Sprinkle with 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1/4 teaspoon pepper and 1/2 cup grated cheese. Next, shingle half the carrots and parsnips in alternating rows in an even layer. Pour a third of the cream mixture over the top, then sprinkle with salt, pepper and 1/2 cup cheese. Finally, shingle the remaining parsnips and carrots in alternating rows in an even layer. Use your hands to lightly press down on the vegetables to even out, if needed. Pour the remainder of the cream mixture over the top, then sprinkle with salt and pepper. Reserve the remaining cheese (about 1 cup).
• Cover the baking dish tightly with aluminum foil and bake until the vegetables are fairly tender and the sauce is simmering, about 1 hour. Remove the foil and sprinkle the top of the gratin with the remaining cheese. Bake, uncovered, until the cheese is lightly browned and the vegetables are tender, another 30 minutes.
• Cool for at least 10 minutes before slicing. Serve warm.

CARROT & PARSNIP GRATIN

Steps:

• Heat oven to 425F.
• Cook and stir bacon in large saucepan on medium heat until crisp. Remove bacon from pan with slotted spoon; drain on paper towels. Spoon 2 Tbsp. drippings into small bowl; set aside for later use. Add vegetables to remaining drippings in pan; toss to coat. Spoon into 13x9-inch baking dish.
• Bake 20 min. Meanwhile, return reserved 2 Tbsp. bacon drippings to pan. Stir in flour; cook and stir on medium heat 1 min. Add milk and mustard; bring to boil, stirring frequently. Simmer 1 min or until sauce is slightly thickened. Add Neufchatel; cook 3 min. or until melted, stirring frequently.
• Reduce oven temperature to 350ºF. Sprinkle bacon over roasted vegetables; top with Neufchatel sauce. Mix stuffing mix, parsley and butter; sprinkle over vegetables. Bake 30 min. or until vegetable mixture is hot and bubbly and topping is golden brown.

CARROT, PARSNIP, AND CHEDDAR GRATIN

Steps:

• 3/4 pound each of carrots and parsnips, peeled, halved lengthwise if large, and cut into 1/2 inch slices. 2 ounces coarsely grated sharp Cheddar cheese (about 1/2 cup). Heat the oven to 350F. Butter a shallow, oval-shaped gratin dish. In a 10 inch skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the onion and a pinch of salt and cook, stirring occasionally, until golden brown, 7-10 minutes. Meanwhile, melt the butter and pour into a small bowl. Add the panko crumbs, parsley, and marjoram and toss well to combine. Whisk the heavy cream, mustard, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and a few grinds of pepper into the onion; then stir in the carrots and parsnips. Bring up the heat just to a boil, cover the pan, lower the heat and simmer gently until the vegetables are crisp-tender, 10-12 minutes. Spread the carrot and parsnip mixture in the prepared gratin dish. Scatter the Cheddar over the vegetables, top with the panko and herb mixture, and bake until the vegetables are tender when pierced with a fork and the crumbs are golden-brown, 25 to 30 minutes. Let rest for 15 minutes before serving.

PARSNIP GRATIN

Steps:

• Heat oven to 375.
• Put 2 or 3 cups of cream in a pot and heat until it's hot.
• Peel and slice 1 pound each of parsnips and potatoes, and grate 1 to 1 .5 cups Gruyere
• Layer the parsnips, potatoes and cheese in an ovenproof dish, sprinkling every other layer with salt, pepper and thyme.
• Pour in enough hot cream to come about 3/4 of the way up the vegetable layers.
• Cook in the oven, undisturbed, until the vegetables are tender and easily pierced with a fork, 45 to 50 minutes. The top should be nicely brown.
• Let stand for a few minutes, then serve.

CREAMY PARSNIP & MUSTARD GRATIN

Steps:

• Slice enough parsnips thinly lengthways to cover the surface of a small ovenproof dish, then slice the rest thinly into rounds. Combine the milk, cream, stock, mustard and half the cheese in a large, lidded saucepan and bring to the boil. Add a good grating of nutmeg and some seasoning - the sweet parsnips can take a bit of salt - then tip in the parsnips. When the cream is simmering again, cover and cook for 6 mins.
• Using tongs, fish out the long slices of parsnip and set aside. Tip the rest into your dish, then arrange the long slices over the top. Scatter with the rest of the cheese and another grating of nutmeg. Can be chilled for up to 24 hrs.
• To serve, heat oven to 180C/fan 160C/gas 4 and bake for 1 hr, then turn up to 200C/fan 180C/gas 6 and brown for 15 mins more - you can do this while the pie is resting.

CARROT, PARSNIP, AND PEA GRATIN

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375°F. Butter a 2-quart gratin or baking dish. Place the carrots, parsnips, peas, and onions in a medium bowl. Pour in the cream; season well with salt and pepper. Toss until well combined. Pour into the baking dish; bake, stirring halfway through, until bubbly and golden brown, 40 to 50 minutes. Serve immediately.

ROASTED PARSNIPS AND CARROTS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C).
• Cut carrots and parsnips into 2-inch matchsticks about 1/4-inch thick. Toss with olive oil. Season with salt and pepper and toss again. Spread carrots and parsnips in a 10x15-inch baking dish.
• Roast in the preheated oven, stirring every 15 minutes, until browned, 40 to 45 minutes.
• Combine butter, shallot, chives, rosemary, thyme, and garlic in a small bowl. Add to hot vegetables and toss to coat.

SWEET POTATO & PARSNIP GRATIN

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 180°C/160°C fan-forced. Layer sweet potato, parsnip and carrot in a greased 6cm-deep, 6 cup-capacity ovenproof dish.
• Combine the soup mix, rosemary and cream in a jug. Season with pepper. Pour mix over the vegetables.
• Bake, covered, for 30 minutes.

GRATIN OF CARROTS & ROOT VEGETABLES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 180C/gas 4/fan 160C and butter a shallow ovenproof dish. Layer the potatoes, then the parsnip in the bottom of the dish with two of the sliced garlic cloves and sprinkle over a little salt and half the rosemary. It's best to keep the potatoes buried under the other vegetables because they go black if they are on top of the gratin.
• Pour the cream and milk into a large saucepan, add the rest of the rosemary and garlic, the carrots and a little seasoning. Bring to the boil, then turn the heat to the lowest it will go and simmer for 3 minutes.
• Pour the carrots and cream over the other vegetables, and spread the carrots out. Sprinkle over the parmesan, cover with foil and bake for 40 minutes. Remove the foil and bake a further 20 minutes until golden and bubbly.
