Farm Egg And Kale Tartines Recipes

CREAMY KALE AND EGGS

Steps:

• Heat the olive oil in a medium nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the leeks, reduce the heat to low, and cook until softened but not brown, about 8 minutes.
• Stir the kale into the leeks and cook until just wilted, about 2 minutes. Season the mixture with the nutmeg and some salt and pepper. Stir in the yogurt until combined.
• Make four indentations in the kale and carefully crack an egg into each. Sprinkle a little salt and pepper over each egg. Cover the pan and cook the eggs until the whites are completely set and the eggs are cooked desired doneness, 2 to 3 minutes for medium (runny yolk).
• Divide the eggs and kale among four serving plates, top each with about 1 1/2 teaspoons Parmesan and serve with the toasted crusty bread on the side.

EGG AND KALE BREAKFAST WRAPS

Steps:

• Cut away and discard the stem from the center of each kale leaf. Coarsely chop the kale into 1-inch pieces. It will look like you have a lot of kale, but it will cook down considerably.
• Heat the oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the tomatoes, thyme, garlic, shallots and red pepper flakes, if using. Saute until the tomatoes and shallots soften, about 4 minutes. Add the kale and sprinkle with the salt. Toss with 2 wooden spoons until the kale wilts but is still bright green, about 2 minutes. Stir in the basil. Remove from the heat.
• Fill a wide shallow pan with 2 to 3 inches of water and bring to a gentle simmer, barely a bubble really.
• Meanwhile, using tongs, toast each tortilla directly over high heat until beginning to blacken in spots, about 15 seconds per side. Put the warm tortillas on plates. Spoon 1 tablespoon of hummus on each tortilla and spread to cover, leaving a 1-inch border. Divide the kale mixture over the hummus.
• Add the lemon juice to the barely simmering water. With a wooden spoon, stir the water briskly to create a vortex in the middle of the pan. Crack an egg on the counter and break it directly into the center of the vortex. Stir the water gently again around the outside of the egg to help the white fold up around itself. Cook until the white is just set and the yolk is still very soft, 2 to 3 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, remove the egg from the water and dab on a towel to remove excess water before moving it to one of the wraps. Continue with the remaining eggs.
• Slit the yolks and press on the eggs a bit so the yolks begin to run (this will make them easier to eat). Fold up the bottom of each tortilla and then fold in the sides, leaving the wraps open at the top. Serve.

FARM EGG AND KALE TARTINES

Steps:

• For the egg salad:.
• Bring a pot of water to a simmer and gently place the eggs into the pot. Cook the eggs for 7 1/2 minutes. Immediately use a slotted spoon to transfer the eggs to a container of ice water to stop them from cooking any further.
• When completely cooled, peel the eggs and coarsely chop them. Place in a large bowl and add the shallot, chervil, chives, mustard, lemon juice and aioli. Toss to combine. Add salt and pepper to taste. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
• For the carrot-cider vinaigrette:.
• In a large bowl, combine the shallots, carrot, vinegar, mustard and thyme. Allow the ingredients to stand for about 10 minutes. Slowly whisk in the oil. Add salt and pepper to taste.
• To serve:.
• Toss the kale with some of the vinaigrette. Season with salt and pepper if needed.
• Toast the bread over a medium-hot grill. Spread a generous layer of the egg salad over the toast, then top it with some of the kale slaw. Cut into four pieces and garnish with the radishes.

SAUSAGE, EGG AND KALE CASSEROLE

Steps:

• Heat oven to 325 degrees. Generously butter a large 2 1/2-quart baking dish.
• Heat 2 teaspoons olive oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium. Add sausage and cook, stirring to break it up, until lightly browned, 6 to 8 minutes. Transfer to the baking dish, spreading it in an even layer.
• Add 2 teaspoons oil to the skillet and increase heat to medium-high. Add red onion, salt it lightly and cook, stirring frequently, until it starts to take on color, about 8 minutes. Reduce heat to medium-low and continue cooking until softened, 3 to 4 minutes. Transfer to the baking dish and arrange evenly on top of the sausage.
• Add the remaining 2 teaspoons oil to the skillet and heat over medium. Add kale, season it lightly with salt and pepper, cover and cook, occasionally tossing with tongs until wilted, 2 to 3 minutes. Transfer to the baking dish and arrange evenly on top of the onions. Top with the grape tomatoes and fontina.
• Whisk together the eggs and cream in a large bowl and season generously with salt and pepper. (If making ahead of time, wrap the baking dish and egg mixture separately and refrigerate until needed.)
• Pour the egg mixture over the ingredients in the baking dish, and sprinkle with Parmesan. Bake until the eggs are just set in the middle, 25 to 30 minutes. (Increase the baking time by about 15 minutes if the components were refrigerated ahead of time.).
• Broil until the top is lightly browned, 2 to 3 minutes. Sprinkle with Aleppo, if using.
