Gratin Of Fall Vegetables Recipes

VEGETABLE GRATIN

Steps:

• In a large saute pan set over medium heat, add enough olive oil to lightly coat the bottom of the pan. When the oil is hot, add the onions and saute until translucent, but not browned, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic and cook for 1 minute, stirring. Add the tomatoes and cook until they start to give off their liquid, about 5 minutes. Add the thyme and season with salt and pepper. Add the sugar and cook until there is almost no liquid left, about 10 to 15 minutes, stirring frequently. Remove from the heat.
• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
• Lay the eggplant and zucchini out on a flat surface and season with salt and pepper. Drizzle with olive oil.
• In another large saute pan set over medium high heat, add enough olive oil to coat the bottom of the pan. When the oil just starts to smoke, add the eggplant in 1 layer and cook just until golden brown on both sides, about 2 to 3 minutes per side. You might need to do this in batches. Remove to a paper towel lined plate. Blot the top with additional paper towels.
• In the same pan, add more olive oil to coat the bottom of the pan. When the oil just starts to smoke, add the zucchini in 1 layer and saute until just browned on each side, about 1 minute per side. Remove to a paper towel lined plate.
• In a shallow roasting pan or baking dish, spread half of the tomato sauce evenly over the bottom. Begin layering the eggplant and zucchini along the outside of the baking dish so they are overlapping slightly. Continue until the pan is full and the eggplant and zucchini is used. Cover the top with the remaining tomato sauce, spreading evenly. Sprinkle the mozzarella and Parmesan evenly over the top, covering completely.
• Place the baking dish inside a large baking dish. Pour hot water into the larger baking dish about half way up the sides to make a water bath. Bake for 25 minutes, or until the cheese is golden brown and bubbly. Remove from the oven and let sit for 5 minutes before serving.

ROOT VEGETABLE GRATIN

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Butter a 13-by-10-by-2 1/2-inch baking dish.
• Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large (12-inch) saute pan over medium heat, add the onion and fennel and cook for 10 minutes, tossing occasionally, until lightly browned and tender. Add the garlic and cook for one minute.
• Meanwhile, in a large bowl, combine the onion mixture, sweet potatoes, celery root, Yukon Gold potatoes, cream, chicken stock, Gruyere, thyme, 1 tablespoon salt and 1 1/2 teaspoons pepper. Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish and press lightly so the vegetables lie flat all the way to the edge. Combine the bread crumbs and 2 tablespoons of olive oil and distribute evenly on top. Bake uncovered for 1 1/2 hours, until the vegetables are very tender when tested with a small knife and the top is browned and bubbly. Allow to set for 15 minutes and serve hot.
• Make ahead: Bake in advance and reheat while the turkey rests, or assemble the dish, cover and refrigerate for up to 24 hours, then bake before serving.

FALL VEGETABLE GRATIN (LOW FAT) - 3 WW POINTS

Steps:

• Trim roots, outer leaves, and tops from the leeks, leaving 6 inches or so of the base. Split each leek in half lengthwise. Cut each half crosswise into 1-inch-thick slices. Rinse thoroughly under cold water, drain. Repeat. Set aside.
• Wash brussels sprouts thoroughly under cold running water, and remove any discolored leaves. Cut off root ends, and cut sprouts in half.
• Wash and peel carrots trimming off ends. Cut into 1/4 inch pices making coins or cut on a the diagonal for oblong pieces. Set aside.
• Coat a large nonstick skillet with cooking spray; add oil. Place over medium heat until hot. Add leeks and garlic; sauté 5 minutes. Add sprouts, carrot, and water; cover and cook 15 minutes. Spoon vegetable mixture into a 1 1/2-quart casserole coated with cooking spray; set aside.
• While vegetables are cooking warm milk in a small saucepan. Place milk in pitcher. (I find this warming creates a smoother sauce, but you may skip it if you are short on time.) Melt butter in the same saucepan over medium-low heat, stir in flour. It will form more lumps than paste - that's low fat cooking. Add in 1/4 cup of milk and vigorously whisk to blend the flour and remove lumps. Gradually add the remaining milk, stirring each with a wire whisk until well blended. Increase heat to medium, cooking for about 5 minutes or until thickened, stirring constantly. Remove from heat; stir in lemon-pepper blend and Parmesan. Pour sauce over vegetable mixture. (Cover and chill mixture now, if desired.).
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Before baking, sprinkle cornflake crumbs over vegetable mixture. Bake uncovered for 20 minutes or until thoroughly heated.
• If you are cooking a cold gratin, bake 30 minutes covered. Remove cover and bake additional 20 minutes.

• Trim off the ends of the zucchini. Cut the zucchini into 1/4-inch-thick rounds. There should be about 4 cups. Bring enough water to the boil to cover the zucchini when added. Add the zucchini and when the water returns to the boil cook 2 minutes. Drain. Put the zucchini into the container of a food processor or electric blender and blend thoroughly. Line a saucepan with a sieve and pour the zucchini into it.
• Drain briefly and pour the zucchini into a mixing bowl. There should be about 2 cups.
• Meanwhile, cut the kernels from the ears of corn. There should be about 1 3/4 cups. Add corn, green pepper, basil and garlic to the zucchini.
• Break eggs in a small mixing bowl and beat them. Beat in the milk. Pour mixture into the mixing bowl and add salt, pepper, nutmeg and cayenne. Blend well.
• Put half the butter into a 6-cup baking dish and rub butter over the bottom and sides. Pour in the zucchini mixture and smooth over the top. Dot the top with the remaining butter and sprinkle with Parmesan cheese. Bake 30 minutes or until set.

• Put the carrots, onion and garlic in a large skillet with a heavy bottom. Dissolve the tomato paste in the white wine and pour it over the carrots. Stir to combine.
• Arrange the eggplant, tomato, yellow pepper, fennel, squash and red pepper, in that order, in alternating rows on top of the carrot mixture. The sliced vegetables should be loosely packed. Sprinkle the thyme over the gratin and season with the black pepper. Drizzle with the olive oil, cover the pan with foil and bake for 45 minutes. Remove the foil and continue to bake for an additional 30 minutes.

• Add ½ cup cream, 1 ounce Parmesan cheese, 1 teaspoon thyme, ½ teaspoon salt, and ¼ teaspoon pepper to each bowl, and toss until the vegetables are well coated.
• Grease a 3-quart baking dish on all sides with the butter. Pour the remaining ½ cup cream into the bottom of the baking dish. Stir in the garlic and leek until evenly distributed, then sprinkle with 1 ounce of Parmesan.
• Arrange the sliced vegetable in the baking dish, alternating between vegetables, by stacking a few slices together and fanning out at an angle in the dish. Continue arranging in rows until the dish is filled, tucking smaller slices into any gaps. Sprinkle more salt and pepper and the remaining ounce of Parmesan over the top.
• Cover the dish with foil, then bake for 25 minutes. Uncover and bake for another 20 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender and the sauce has thickened. Cover again with foil if the top is browning too quickly.
