Artichoke And Potato Hash Food

CHUNKY JERUSALEM ARTICHOKE AND POTATO MASH

Steps:

• Combine Jerusalem artichokes and potatoes in large pot. Pour enough cold water over to cover; add 1 tablespoon coarse salt. Bring to boil; reduce heat and boil gently until all vegetables are tender when pierced with knife, about 18 minutes. Drain, reserving cooking liquid. Return vegetables to pot. Mash vegetables, adding reserved cooking liquid by 1/2 cupfuls to moisten until chunky mixture forms. Stir in butter. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Transfer to bowl and serve. DO AHEAD: Can be made 2 hours ahead. Transfer mash to large heatproof bowl. Let stand at room temperature. Rewarm in same bowl set over simmering water, stirring occasionally, before serving.

SALMON WITH POTATO-ARTICHOKE HASH

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 475 degrees. In an 11-by-15-by-2 3/4-inch roasting pan, toss together potatoes, artichokes, thyme, 1/2 teaspoon oil, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Arrange vegetables around sides of pan.
• Place salmon pieces in center of pan, and press them together to form one long piece. Coat with remaining 1/2 teaspoon oil, and sprinkle all over with salt and pepper. Roast, turning the vegetables once, until lightly browned and tender and salmon is just cooked through, about 20 minutes.
• Meanwhile, make sauce: Stir together 1/2 teaspoon salt, a pinch pepper, parsley, mustard, vinegar, and 1 tablespoon water.
• Gently separate salmon pieces, top with parsley sauce. Serve with vegetables.

ARTICHOKE, ONION, AND POTATO HASH

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil over medium heat. Add the potatoes and cook until just tender. Drain and turn out onto a cutting board. Smash the potatoes with the side of a large knife or spatula.
• Heat a large cast iron skillet over medium-high heat and add the olive oil. When the pan is very hot, but not smoking, add the cipollini onions, and cook until starting to caramelize, about 4 to 5 minutes Add in the drained artichokes and season with salt and pepper, to taste. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes before turning them so that they will caramelize. Add the potatoes and cook until the potatoes are starting to brown, then stir in the garlic and the thyme. Slowly pour in the chicken stock, scraping up the bits from the bottom of the pan. Sprinkle with the vinegar and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper, if necessary. Transfer to a platter and garnish with chopped parsley.

ARTICHOKE AND POTATO HASH

Steps:

• This to me is best in a cast iron skillet or a stainless pan vs non stick. But use what you have.
• A one pan dish -- In a large sauce pan, melt the butter and add the oil. Add the onion and garlic and cook 2 minutes. Add the potatoes and a little broth and cook until the potatoes start to get slightly brown and soft. This will take around 8-10 minutes. During that time add a little broth at a time for a little moisture. Then the last 5 minutes, add the artichokes, capers, s/p, scallions, and rosemary. A little broth if necessary and cook another 5 minutes until everything is soft and it resembles a nice hash. Serve with fresh slices of flank or skirt steak or a nice fillet. Chicken is also great with this too.

ARTICHOKE, GARLIC & POTATO MASH

Steps:

• Place the potatoes in a large saucepan and cover with cold salted water. Bring to the boil and cook for 15 mins or until tender, then drain. Return to pan and add butter, milk and some seasoning. Mash until light and fluffy. Stir in the parsley.
• While the potatoes are cooking, pat the artichoke slices dry with kitchen paper. Heat the olive oil in a medium frying pan. Cook the garlic for 1 min, then add the artichoke hearts and some seasoning. Cook for 5 mins until golden and crisp. Mash the cooked artichokes into the potatoes, reserving a few for the top, and warm through again on low heat until piping hot. Serve with the rest of the artichokes on top.

GRILLED SKIRT STEAK WITH ARTICHOKE-POTATO HASH AND BLACK OLIVE AïOLI

Steps:

• Trim the skirt steak of excess fat and sinew, if any (it doesn't usually need much trimming). Season the skirt steak with the sliced chiles, cracked black pepper, rosemary, and thyme leaves. Cover, and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight.
• Preheat the oven to 400°F.
• Toss the potatoes with 2 tablespoons olive oil, the garlic cloves, thyme sprigs, bay leaf, and 1 teaspoon salt. Place in a roasting pan, cover with aluminum foil, and roast about 45 minutes, until tender when pierced. (Depending on the size, age, and variety of potatoes, cooking time will vary.)
• While the potatoes are roasting, prepare the artichokes. Cut off the top third of the artichokes, and remove the tough outer leaves, down to the pale yellowgreen leaves. Using a paring knife, trim the bottom of the stem and the stalks. Cut each artichoke in half and remove the fuzzy choke if there is one. (If you clean the artichokes ahead of time, immerse them in a bowl of cold water with the juice of one lemon added, to prevent them from turning brown. Be sure to drain and dry them well before cooking.)
• Heat a large sauté pan over high heat for 2 minutes. Pour a cup olive oil into the pan, and wait a minute. Add the artichokes, and season with 1 teaspoon thyme, 1 teaspoon salt, and a pinch of pepper. Turn the heat to medium, and sauté about 10 minutes, tossing often, until the artichokes are golden brown. (If the pan seems dry, add another tablespoon or two of olive oil.)
• When the potatoes have cooled, crumble them into chunky pieces. Squeeze the roasted garlic out of its skin and set aside.
• Wipe out the artichoke pan and return it to the stove over high heat, for 2 minutes. (To get the potatoes nicely browned and crisp, don't overcrowd them. You may have to use two pans or do it in batches.) Swirl in the remaining a cup olive oil and wait a minute. Add the crumbled potatoes, and season with the remaining 2 teaspoons thyme, 1 teaspoon salt, and freshly ground black pepper. Cook until the potatoes are crispy on one side. (Don't try to move them or turn them if they are stuck to the pan; they will eventually release themselves, just be patient.) After about 8 minutes, when they've browned nicely on the first side, turn the potatoes in the oil, letting them color on all sides.
• When the potatoes are golden brown, turn the heat down to medium and add the shallots, artichokes, and roasted garlic. Toss well, and sauté the hash together 5 to 6 minutes, until the artichokes are hot and the shallots are translucent. Toss in the chopped parsley just before serving.
• Light the grill 30 to 40 minutes before cooking, and remove the steak from the refrigerator so it reaches room temperature by the time you're ready to grill it.
• When the coals are broken down, red, and glowing, season the steak generously with salt, and brush it lightly with olive oil. Place the meat on the hottest part of the grill, to get a nice sear on the outside. Cook about 2 minutes, turn the meat a quarter-turn, and cook another minute. Turn the meat over, and move it to a cooler spot on the grill. Cook another minute or two for medium-rare. Rest the steak on a wire rack set over a baking sheet for a few minutes.
• Arrange the artichoke-potato hash on a large warm platter, and scatter the arugula leaves over the top. Slice the steak against the grain, and lay the slices over the potatoes and artichokes. Spoon some of the black olive aïoli over the meat, and pass the rest at the table.
• Place the egg yolk in a stainless steel bowl. Begin whisking in the grapeseed oil drop by drop, as slowly as you can bear. Continue in this manner, following with the olive oil, as the mixture thickens. Once the mayonnaise has emulsified, add the remaining oil in a slow steady stream, whisking all the time. If the mixture gets too thick and is difficult to whisk, add a drop or two of water.
• Pound the garlic with 1/4 teaspoon salt in a mortar. Add half the olives and pound to a paste. Roughly chop the remaining olives.
• Fold the garlic-olive paste and the chopped olives into the mayonnaise. Season with 1/4 teaspoon salt, a squeeze of lemon juice, and the cayenne pepper. Taste for balance and seasoning. If the aïoli seems thick and gloppy, thin it with a little water; this will also make it creamier.
• Season the steak with the chiles, pepper, and herbs the night before cooking. You can roast the potatoes and sauté the artichokes ahead of time. Sauté them together to make the hash just before serving; the hash can sit in the pan while you finish the steaks. You can make the aïoli a few hours ahead as well.

CHICKEN, POTATO, SQUASH AND ARTICHOKE HASH

Steps:

• Cook potatoes and squash in large pot of boiling water until almost tender, about 12 minutes. Drain and cool slightly. Cut vegetables into 3/4-inch dice. (Can be prepared 1 day ahead. Cover and refrigerate.)
• Divide butter between 2 heavy large skillets and melt over medium heat. Divide onions between skillets and cook until golden brown, stirring occasionally, about 10 minutes. Increase heat to high. Divide chicken, potatoes and squash between skillets and cook until vegetables are golden brown, stirring frequently, about 6 minutes. Divide artichoke hearts, cream, Parmesan and 2 tablespoons tarragon between skillets. Boil until cream thickens and coats hash well and chicken is cooked through, stirring frequently, about 3 minutes. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Garnish hash with tarragon sprigs, if desired, and serve.
