Carrot And Parsnip Parmesan Au Gratin Recipes

GRATIN OF CARROTS & ROOT VEGETABLES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 180C/gas 4/fan 160C and butter a shallow ovenproof dish. Layer the potatoes, then the parsnip in the bottom of the dish with two of the sliced garlic cloves and sprinkle over a little salt and half the rosemary. It's best to keep the potatoes buried under the other vegetables because they go black if they are on top of the gratin.
• Pour the cream and milk into a large saucepan, add the rest of the rosemary and garlic, the carrots and a little seasoning. Bring to the boil, then turn the heat to the lowest it will go and simmer for 3 minutes.
• Pour the carrots and cream over the other vegetables, and spread the carrots out. Sprinkle over the parmesan, cover with foil and bake for 40 minutes. Remove the foil and bake a further 20 minutes until golden and bubbly.

ROASTED PARSNIPS AND CARROTS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
• If the parsnips and carrots are very thick, cut them in half lengthwise. Slice each diagonally in 1-inch-thick slices. The vegetables will shrink while cooking, so don't make the pieces too small. Place the cut vegetables on a sheet pan. Add the olive oil, salt, and pepper and toss well. Roast for 20 to 40 minutes, depending on the size of the vegetables, tossing occasionally, until the parsnips and carrots are just tender. Sprinkle with dill and serve hot.

ROOT VEGETABLE GRATIN

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Spray a 9-by-13-inch baking dish with nonstick cooking spray.
• Combine the heavy whipping cream, chicken stock, butter, thyme, garlic and Parmesan rind in a small saucepot. Place over medium-low heat and cook just until simmering, 10 to 12 minutes. Turn off the heat and whisk in the flour. Strain the cream mixture through a colander into a container with a pour spout and discard the thyme stems, garlic and cheese rind.
• Spread the potato rounds in an even layer in the bottom of the prepared baking dish. Pour a third of the cream mixture over the potatoes. Sprinkle with 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1/4 teaspoon pepper and 1/2 cup grated cheese. Next, shingle half the carrots and parsnips in alternating rows in an even layer. Pour a third of the cream mixture over the top, then sprinkle with salt, pepper and 1/2 cup cheese. Finally, shingle the remaining parsnips and carrots in alternating rows in an even layer. Use your hands to lightly press down on the vegetables to even out, if needed. Pour the remainder of the cream mixture over the top, then sprinkle with salt and pepper. Reserve the remaining cheese (about 1 cup).
• Cover the baking dish tightly with aluminum foil and bake until the vegetables are fairly tender and the sauce is simmering, about 1 hour. Remove the foil and sprinkle the top of the gratin with the remaining cheese. Bake, uncovered, until the cheese is lightly browned and the vegetables are tender, another 30 minutes.
• Cool for at least 10 minutes before slicing. Serve warm.

CREAMY PARSNIP & MUSTARD GRATIN

Steps:

• Slice enough parsnips thinly lengthways to cover the surface of a small ovenproof dish, then slice the rest thinly into rounds. Combine the milk, cream, stock, mustard and half the cheese in a large, lidded saucepan and bring to the boil. Add a good grating of nutmeg and some seasoning - the sweet parsnips can take a bit of salt - then tip in the parsnips. When the cream is simmering again, cover and cook for 6 mins.
• Using tongs, fish out the long slices of parsnip and set aside. Tip the rest into your dish, then arrange the long slices over the top. Scatter with the rest of the cheese and another grating of nutmeg. Can be chilled for up to 24 hrs.
• To serve, heat oven to 180C/fan 160C/gas 4 and bake for 1 hr, then turn up to 200C/fan 180C/gas 6 and brown for 15 mins more - you can do this while the pie is resting.
