Tian Of Roast Potatoes And Chinese Mustard Greens Recipes

TIAN OF ROAST POTATOES AND CHINESE MUSTARD GREENS

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350 degrees F.
• Slice potatoes in 1/4-inch thick slices and place in a medium sized bowl.
• Toss potato slices with 2 Tbsp.olive oil to prevent browning.
• Sprinkle potatoes with salt and pepper.
• After washing greens, separate thick stems from leaves.
• Slice stems in julienne.
• Cut leaves into a fine shred---you should have 8-10 cups.
• Place stems then leaves in large oven safe casserole.
• Add garlic, broth, 2 Tbsp Olive oil and seasoning to taste.
• Layer potatoes over greens in overlapping circles or rows, depending on shape of pan. You may have to press to fit the potatoes atop the greens, but as they cook, the greens will wilt.
• Place in a pre-heated oven and bake for 45 minutes to an hour. You want the potatoes to be crisp and lightly browned.
• Optional: top with grated parmesan cheese during the last 10 mins of baking, or lightly buttered bread crumbs for an additional flavor burst.

MUSTARD-ROASTED POTATOES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees.
• Cut the potatoes in halves or quarters, depending on their size, and place them on a sheet pan. Remove the ends of the onions, peel them, and cut them in half. Slice them crosswise in 1/4-inch-thick slices to make half-rounds. Toss the onions and potatoes together on the sheet pan. Add the olive oil, mustard, 2 teaspoons salt, and the pepper and toss them together. Bake for 50 minutes to 1 hour, until the potatoes are lightly browned on the outside and tender on the inside. Toss the potatoes from time to time with a metal spatula so they brown evenly.
• Serve hot sprinkled with chopped parsley and a little extra salt.

TIAN

Steps:

• In a pot, boil 2 inches of water for blanching tomatoes. Place an 8- or 9-inch cast-iron skillet on a burner over low heat, and add butter to melt.
• Peel the potatoes, and slice on a Japanese mandoline into 1/4-inch-thick disks, then arrange in a single layer circle covering the bottom of the cast-iron skillet with its melted butter, keeping the skillet on the burner and leaving the heat on while you start to build the tian.
• Add a second layer of potato slices, and season with salt and pepper, add a drizzle of olive oil and cover with a lid to slightly steam while you slice the yellow onion.
• Peel the onion, then slice into even 1/4-inch or thinner rounds. The Japanese mandoline is sometimes too narrow to use for this, so you may have to use a sharp knife and do it manually.
• Layer abundantly half the onion rings evenly around the pan on top of the steamed potatoes, season with salt and pepper and a drizzle of olive oil, and recover the pan with a lid while you slice the zucchini.
• Slice the zucchini into 1/4-inch-thick rounds, and layer half of them in concentric, just-overlapping shingled circles over the onions to create a neat layer. Season with salt and pepper, drizzle with oil and recover with the lid while you blanch the tomatoes.
• Season the now-boiling water with a few good pinches of salt, and drop the tomatoes into the boiling water. As soon as their skins split - about 30 seconds - retrieve the tomatoes and run under cold water to quickly cool enough to handle; set aside.
• Build another ring of potato around the tian on top of the now-steaming zucchini, this time just a single layer. Drizzle with oil, season with salt and pepper and recover with the lid to steam a bit while you slip the skins off the tomatoes.
• Layer the other half of the onions as before, season and drizzle and replace the lid as before, while you split the tomatoes in half horizontally with a small sharp knife.
• Add final layer of zucchini to the tian, and season with salt and pepper and a drizzle of olive oil. Cover, and let steam while you heat the oven to 375 degrees.
• Place the tomatoes around the top of the tian evenly, and sprinkle the bread crumbs over the top evenly. Drizzle with oil, season with salt and pepper and place in the oven to bake for 30 minutes. (If your skillet threatens to bubble over, slip a sheet pan underneath to prevent any burned wreckage in the bottom of your oven.)
• With a spoon, baste, and drizzle the pan juices that accumulate in the tian over the top when you remove it from the oven at the end. Allow the tian to cool, settle and kind of meld for an hour before eating.

POTATO-ONION TIAN

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425˚. Brush a 3-quart oval baking dish with olive oil. Toss the potatoes with 1 tablespoon olive oil, the thyme, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper in a large bowl. In a separate bowl, toss the onion and leek slices, keeping them intact, with 1 tablespoon olive oil and a big pinch each of salt and pepper.
• Arrange the potatoes, onion and leek in overlapping layers in the prepared dish. Drizzle with the remaining 1/4 cup olive oil and season with 1/2 teaspoon salt. Cover with foil and bake until the vegetables are very tender, about 45 minutes. Uncover and bake until the potatoes are lightly browned and crisp around the edges, 30 to 40 more minutes. Let stand about 10 minutes before serving.

• Place sesame oil in the hot skillet, and heat until it just begins to smoke (this should happen very fast). Place mustard greens into the hot oil, and pour in water. With a spatula, gently toss the greens until they are wilted and reduced in quantity, about 2 minutes. Mix in garlic, soy sauce, rice wine vinegar, sake, and sugar.
• Bring the mixture to a boil, stir until sugar has dissolved, and cover the skillet. Reduce heat to a simmer, and cook until the greens are tender, 10 to 15 minutes. If a thicker sauce is desired, remove greens with a slotted spoon, and cook the liquid down to desired thickness; return greens to the skillet, toss in the pan juices, and sprinkle with toasted sesame seeds.

MUSTARD GREENS

• Add beef stock to the pot, making sure to scrape sausage off the sides. Add some of the greens to the pot and mix to cover as much as possible with the chorizo/stock mixture.
• Add the remaining greens to the pot, pressing down to close the pot. This will be well past the "maximum" line, but don't worry as they will wilt significantly below the line by the time they're done.
• Seal the pressure cooker and cook for 15 minutes. Stream cold water on the lid - avoiding the vent! - to cool the pressure cooker enough to safely open.
• Drain the greens to remove excess moisture. Season with pepper, garlic salt, and hot sauce.
