Drunken Potatoes Food

ONE-POT PARTRIDGE WITH DRUNKEN POTATOES

Steps:

• Season the partridges (including the cavity) generously. Put a juniper berry, a thyme sprig, a bay leaf and a garlic clove in each cavity. Chop the bacon into chunky pieces and slice the potato lengthways into six thick slices, discarding the ends.
• Heat oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Heat half the duck fat or butter in a flameproof casserole dish until just sizzling, then brown the birds on all sides for 10 mins. Remove them from the dish and set aside. Add the rest of the fat to the dish and gently fry the potato slices until very brown and crisp on each side. Add the bacon and sizzle with the potatoes until starting to brown. Sit the birds on top of the potatoes and pour over the wine and stock. Put in the oven, uncovered, for 15 mins.
• Remove the birds from the dish and leave somewhere warm to rest for 10 mins. Baste the potatoes, return to the oven until cooked through, then scatter over the parsley.
• To serve, sit the birds back in the pan and bring to the table or plate up with the potatoes. Serve with cavolo nero or sprout tops.

WHISKEY-GLAZED SWEET POTATOES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.

• In a small saute pan over high heat, add the pecans and lightly toast. Add 4 tablespoons of butter, reduce the heat to medium, add the agave and spices, and allow to simmer for 4 to 5 minutes. Add the whiskey and continue to simmer for 5 minutes more.
• Peel the potatoes and cut into 1/2-inch slices. Butter the bottom and sides of an 8 by 8-inch baking dish. Arrange the sweet potatoes, alternating with the apples. Pour the whiskey-pecan mixture over the top and place in the oven.
• Bake for 30 minutes, basting the top with the whiskey sauce once at 15 minutes.
• Remove and serve immediately.

DRUNKEN SWEET POTATO CASSEROLE

Steps:

• Boil the potatoes until done.
• Skin and mash potatoes while still warm. Add butter and salt to taste. Add milk until the consistency is like creamy mashed potatoes.
• Put potatoes in a 2 quart casserole dish. Scoop a hollow in the center of the potatoes and create a rim of potatoes around the edge of the pan. Set aside.
• In a double boiler, cook 1/4 lb butter, brown sugar, egg, and bourbon, stirring constantly, until thickened (1/2-3/4 hour--in my experience it never really thickens).
• Poor this syrup into the center hollow of the casserole and over the whole top.

DRUNKEN SLOW COOKER BEEF STEW (BEEF CARBONNADE)

Steps:

• Season beef pieces with salt and pepper, then dredge in flour. Heat a large skillet (cast iron works super well here - or heat your cast aluminum slow cooker insert if you have one) over MED HIGH heat with olive oil. Shake off excess flour and brown beef in batches (don't overcrowd the pan) for several minutes, until you get a golden brown crust on all sides. Remove beef to plate, and continue with all batches.
• When all beef is browned, add beef broth to skillet and use a wooden spoon to gently loosen the browned bits from the bottom of the skillet.
• To bottom of a 6 quart slow cooker, add sliced onions, minced garlic, beef base, beer, and mustard. Stir together, then pour in beef broth from skillet. Top that with browned beef, thyme sprigs and bay leaves.
• Cover slow cooker and cook on LOW for 8 hours.
• About 20-30 minutes before serving, bring a big pot of water to a boil for the egg noodles. Mix 2 Tbsp flour and 3-4 Tbsp beef broth until no lumps remain. Stir into beef stew in slow cooker. Increase heat to HIGH and cook uncovered for 10-15 minutes.
• Add egg noodles to boiling water and cook according to package directions. Drain and toss with a bit of olive oil or butter to prevent sticking, and a pinch of minced parsley.
• To serve, add some egg noodles to bowl or plate. Top with a few ladles of beef carbonnade and sprinkle with some more minced parsley. Alternatively, add egg noodles to slow cooker and stir it all together, then ladle the egg noodle/beef stew mixture into bowls or onto plates.

MY FAMOUS DRUNKEN NOODLES

Steps:

• Make sauce: Combine all of the ingredients in a small bowl. Set aside.
• Prepare noodles: In a large saute pan, heat the oil over high heat. When you see a wisp of white smoke, add the garlic and cook, stirring, until light brown.
• Add the eggs and serrano chiles and cook, stirring, until the eggs are lightly scrambled and barely set, about 1 minute.
• Add the shrimp and onion, folding constantly until the shrimp turn pink, about 1 minute.
• Add the noodles, basil, tomatoes and sauce and toss to combine for about 3 minutes. Don't be scared to scrape the bits off the bottom before they burn. Cook for 1 additional minute until the noodles are cooked and coated well. Serve hot.

DRUNKEN POTATO & CHORIZO SOUP

Steps:

• 1. Preheat a large, heavy-bottomed soup pot over medium-high heat add 1 tablespoon olive oil. Cook chorizo until nice and crispy, Remove to a paper towel-lined plate to drain any excess fat. To the same pot, add remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil, then add the onion and potatoes. Cook, stirring occasionally, until golden brown and slightly crispy.
• 2. Add the garlic, red bell peppers and bay leaf, and season with lightly with salt and freshly ground black pepper. Cook until the veggies soften up a bit, then add the smoked paprika and wine.

Cook for 20 minutes until the soup reduces to a consistency that's close to but not thick like a stew.
