RED FLANNEL HASH CAKES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Place beets on a large piece of heavy-duty foil. Drizzle with 3 tablespoons oil, and sprinkle with 1 tablespoon salt; season with pepper. Fold foil and seal to form a packet. Place packet in oven, and roast until beets are tender, about 1 hour. Let stand until cool enough to handle. Peel beets with a paring knife or a vegetable peeler; cut into 1/4-inch dice (about 2 cups).
• Heat 2 tablespoons oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add bacon, and cook, stirring often, 4 minutes. Add leek, and cook, stirring often, until tender, about 8 minutes. Stir in beets and thyme, and cook 1 minute more. Transfer beet mixture to a large bowl, reserving skillet.
• Peel potatoes, and grate on the large holes of a box grater. Add potatoes and 1 tablespoon salt to the beet mixture, and toss to combine.
• Heat remaining 2 tablespoons oil in the reserved skillet over medium-high heat. Working in batches of 4 and adding more oil if needed, drop 1/4 cup potato mixture into skillet. Gently flatten hash cakes with a spatula. Cook, flipping once, until cakes are just beginning to crisp, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Transfer to a plate lined with paper towels as you work, and keep warm in a 200 degree-oven if desired. Serve with sour cream.

RED FLANNEL HASH WITH FRIED EGGS

Steps:

• Cook potatoes in pot of boiling water until tender, about 8 minutes. Drain.
• Meanwhile, cook bacon in large skillet over medium heat until brown, about 8 minutes. Using slotted spoon, transfer bacon to paper towels; drain. Transfer 1 teaspoon drippings to small skillet.
• Add chopped onion to bacon drippings in large skillet. Sauté onion over medium high heat until soft, about 5 minutes. Mix in potatoes, diced beets and milk. Season hash with pepper and flatten with spatula to compact. Cook hash until heated through, stirring up bottom crust twice, about 10 minutes.

RED-FLANNEL HASH

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 425. Rub the potatoes and beets with a bit of oil, sprinkle with salt and pepper and wrap individually in foil. Put on a rimmed baking sheet, and roast until easily pierced with the tip of a sharp knife, 40 to 60 minutes, depending on their size. (Remove as they are done.)
• Toss the onions in enough olive oil to coat. When the potatoes and beets are about halfway into their cooking time, add the onions to the pan, and roast, turning occasionally until they're tender but not caramelized, 20 to 25 minutes.
• Combine the crème fraîche and horseradish in a small bowl, and season with salt, pepper and lemon juice to taste.
• Combine the asparagus, carrots, mint and greens in a bowl. Just before serving, drizzle with 2 tablespoons olive oil and 2 teaspoons lemon juice; add 1 teaspoon of lemon zest and a sprinkle of salt and pepper, and toss. Taste, and adjust the seasoning, adding more of whatever you'd like.
• When the potatoes are cool enough to handle, crush them with your hands; peel and trim the beets, and chop to about the same size; same with the onions. Mix with the corned beef if you're using it, along with the scallions, cheese and some salt and pepper.
• Put 2 tablespoons each of olive oil and butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. When the pan is hot but not smoking, add the potatoes and beets, and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Shake the pan to form a single layer, and cook undisturbed, but adjusting the heat as necessary so that the vegetables sizzle and bubble. Add more butter if the pan looks dry, but the hash should never look oily. Cook until the potatoes and beets are golden brown on the bottom, 5 to 10 minutes.
• Turn, taste, adjust the seasoning, then sprinkle with some lemon juice and salt. Serve topped with a fried egg and a bit more lemon juice, with the asparagus salad on the side.
