ARTICHOKE, POTATO, AND CHEESE CASSEROLE

Steps:

• Combine the seasoning mix ingredients in a small bowl.
• Place a large pot half filled with water over high heat.
• Add the artichokes and bring to a boil.
• Reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer just until the artichokes are tender, about 25 minutes.
• Remove the artichokes from the pot, reserving the cooking water, and allow them to cool.
• The best way to do this is to turn them upside down on your drainboard-all the excess water will drain out and they'll cool quickly.
• Boil the potatoes in the water in which the artichokes were cooked just until they're tender, about 35 to 40 minutes, reserving 1 cup of the water (or if most of the cooking water has evaporated, add enough water to measure 1 cup).
• Peel the potatoes and dice enough into 1/2 inch cubes to measure 1 cup firmly packed: slice the remainder into 1/2 inch thick rounds.
• Set aside.
• You may be tempted to eat all the artichokes yourself right now, but resist!
• Inside every leaf there's a small amount of pulp-the good part.
• To get it out, with your thumb on the back of a teaspoon, scrape the pulp off the inside of the leaf, always scraping away from yourself.
• Reserve the pulp and discard the leaves.
• Scrape out and discard the choke, the fuzzy section underneath all the little leaves, and be sure to get it all.
• Peel the stems and dice the hearts and stems into bite-sized pieces.
• Arrange the artichoke stems, hearts, and pulp and the potato slices in a 9x13 inch casserole, alternating layers of potato and artichoke.
• Set aside.
• Preheat the oven to 350*F.
• Melt the butter in a 3-quart pot over high heat.
• When the butter sizzles, add the onions, ginger, serrano peppers, and seasoning mix.
• Stir and cook, and when the onions begin to brown, about 6 minutes, add the diced potatoes.
• Reduce the heat to medium if necessary to prevent burning.
• Cook, stirring and mashing the potatoes constantly, until the mixture becomes thick, fairly dry, and brown, about 4 minutes.
• Add the reserved cooking water and cook, continuing to stir, for 6 minutes.
• Add the tamari and cook for 5 minutes, stirring vigorously and mashing the potatoes until they disintegrate.
• The mixture should be a rich brown color.
• Stir in the heavy cream, bring to a boil, then add the mozzarella cheese.
• Stir and remove from the heat.
• Pour this sauce over the artichokes and potatoes in the casserole and top with the Cheddar cheese.
• Bake until the cheese is a beautiful golden brown, about 25 minutes.
• Serve hot.
