Golden Flannel Hash Food

FLANNEL HASH

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
• Mix together the potatoes, beets, garlic and onions in a large bowl. Add the oil and season with salt and pepper. Spread the mixture over a sheet pan and bake until the vegetables are tender and starting to brown, 25 to 30 minutes. Top with the parsley and serve warm.

LEFTOVER BRISKET FLANNEL HASH WITH CRISPY FRIED EGGS

Steps:

• Put the Yukon Gold and sweet potatoes and the garlic in a medium pot and add water to cover. Bring to a boil, add 2 tablespoons of salt and cook until the potatoes are just fork tender, about 4 minutes. Drain and allow to dry on a clean kitchen towel.
• Heat a large cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. Add the schmaltz and heat until melted and shimmering. Add the apple and onion and cook, stirring frequently, until slightly softened, about 1 minute. Add the potatoes, brisket, beets and hot pepper. Season with a big pinch of salt and several grinds of black pepper and stir to combine. Spread evenly in the skillet and cook undisturbed until browned on the bottom, about 2 minutes.
• Flip the pieces and repeat this process to cook until browned all over, about 8 minutes. Resist the urge to stir during each 2-minute interval so the hash can crisp throughout. Remove from the heat, cover and set aside.
• Heat a large nonstick skillet heat over medium-high heat. Add the olive oil and swirl to coat the pan. Crack in the eggs and sprinkle each with a pinch of salt. Cook until the whites are almost set, then tip the pan slightly away from you and use a large spoon to baste the tops with some hot oil. Cook until crisp around the edges and the yolks are the desired doneness, 2 to 4 minutes.
• Divide the hash among 4 bowls and top each with a crispy fried egg. Serve with hot sauce.

GOLDEN HASH BROWNS

Steps:

• Grate the potatoes on the large holes of a box grater into a large bowl and toss with the scallions, cayenne, nutmeg, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper.
• Heat 1 tablespoon of the oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the potato mixture and press into an even layer with a spatula. Cook, shaking the pan occasionally to prevent sticking, until the potatoes are crisp and brown on the bottom, about 10 minutes.
• Remove the skillet from the heat and put a flat plate over it. Carefully flip the skillet so the potatoes fall onto the plate in one piece. Return the skillet to medium heat and add the remaining 1 tablespoon oil, slide the potatoes back into the skillet, browned side-up. Continue cooking until browned and crisp, about 10 minutes more. Slide the hash browns out of the skillet onto a cutting board and cut into wedges.

YANKEE RED FLANNEL HASH

Steps:

• In a small bowl, combine cream, hot sauce, salt and pepper. In a large skillet, heat oil over medium heat. Add onion; cook and stir 2-3 minutes or until tender. Add potatoes, pastrami and beets; cook and stir 8-10 minutes or until golden brown. Stir in half-and-half mixture; heat through. Remove from heat., Heat a large nonstick skillet coated with cooking spray over medium-high heat. Break eggs, one at a time, into pan; reduce heat to low. Cook until desired doneness, turning after whites are set if desired. Serve with hash; sprinkle with parsley.

EASY RED FLANNEL HASH

Steps:

• In a heavy skillet melt together the butter and oil over medium heat; sauté the minced onion and potatoes for 5 minutes, only stirring once or twice, until the potatoes begin to develop a browned crust.
• Reduce the heat to low and add the canned hash, beets, and garlic and stir well.
• Press mixture back into the bottom of the skillet and evenly pour the beef broth over.
• Saute over low heat until mixture browns at the edges, about 30 minutes (check it to see if it's as crispy as you want it - if not, you can flip it, add some butter or oil, and crisp the other side, too).
• Fold browned hash by half and slide onto the serving platter.
• Top with poached or fried eggs and garnish with Parmesan and parsley, and serve (the recipe does not contain any salt or pepper, to allow each person to season to taste to their own preference; make sure to mention that to the folks you're serving).

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.
