Beet, Potato and Egg Mash
Sounds like a crazy combo, right? Well, it is. Kinda. I have a girlfriend who is every bit the cook freak that I am. Worse, actually. Put her in a kitchen and she turns into a mad cheshire cat on speed. Suffice to say that when I open my inbox first thing in the morning and find a recipe from her with the message: “Make this. STAT“, attached to it,…
Creamed Corn and Peas
I admit, the name is somewhat misleading since I’m not using cream at all. But that’s good, right? This is my son’s all time favorite side dish. The kid devours it. I’ll often double it so he can have more than one serving when we eat something he’s not too crazy about. Which is basically anything that doesn’t start with the letter P: pasta, pizza or pancake. I use the…
Potato and Caramelized Onion Puree
Being the onion lover that I am, it dawned on me that I had never made mashed potatoes with caramelized onions. No idea why. It seemed like the perfect accompaniment to the Shallot and Apple Stuffed Bacon Chicken that I slow-cooked on the BGE. I could almost imagine the characteristic taste the sweet caramelized onions would add to the fluffy mashed potatoes, and the fantastic scent that would arise would…
Grilled Honey, Lemon and Rosemary Potatoes
Those Christmas recipes are popping up like daisies. Don’t you just love it? It’s my favorite thing to cook up and photograph because it’s all such pretty and unique food. A few months ago I ran into a recipe for grilled potato slices in a women’s magazine. Made a mental note and then shoved it to the back of my brain. Where it emerged from the dark dungeons of my…
Steamed Cod, Champ and Mustard Sauce
This recipe is more like a mix & match of some of my favorite recipes. Here’s how it’s built up: I like to steam fish. It’s one of the lightest and healthiest ways of cooking fish, but that’s not why it’s my preferred method: the fish holds its natural flavor when cooked like this. That’s a big plus to me. The mash is an Irish recipe called Champ. Mashed potatoes…
Sweet Citrus and Broccoli Rice
I have to come up with evil schemes to get my kid to eat broccoli. He hates it with the fiery passion of a thousand burning suns. Confession booth open? Can’t say I’m crazy about it either—it’s not so much the flavor I don’t care for as it is the structure. I only like to eat it when it’s added to something like my Pasta Gratin or Penne Rigate. But…
