Austrian Potato Pancake Roulades With Shrimp And Spinach Recipes

Steps:

• In a large bowl, combine and mix hash browns with mashed potatoes. Add melted butter, onion, salt, pepper, eggs and milk. Mix well.
• Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil until hot in an 8 or 10-inch nonstick skillet. Ladle 1/2 cup measure of potato mixture into it, swirling pan to distribute a pancake that covers the entire bottom of pan and comes up the sides slightly. Cook 2 minutes or until very well browned. With a long spatula, turn pancake and cook 2 more minutes. Turn back to first side and cook another few seconds. Transfer to a paper towel-lined large plate. Roll and keep warm in a 200 degree oven until all are cooked. *.
• Continue cooking potato mixture in skillet until all is used, rolling each and adding to platter in the oven to keep warm.
• Meanwhile, in a saucepan over low heat combine green onions, spinach, Alfredo sauce and parsley. Mix well, cover and gently warm. Serve 2 rolled pancakes per serving, topping each with spoonfuls of spinach sauce.
• * Pancakes may be cooked two at a time on a two-burner stove-top griddle.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 250 degrees F.
• Add the spinach to a colander, and press down to remove as much water as possible. Transfer the spinach to a double layer of paper towels and press and squeeze to remove any extra water. Chop the spinach and add it to a medium bowl with the remaining ingredients, except the extra-virgin olive oil. The mixture should be very well combined and moist, but not wet.
• Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Divide the mixture into 12 equal portions and form into flat patties, about 3 inches in diameter and 1/4-inch thick. Arrange the patties on the baking sheet and press down until very firm. This step can be done ahead, but be sure to refrigerate the patties.
• In a large nonstick saute pan over medium-high heat, heat the oil. When hot, add the spinach tostadas into the pan, cook about 2 minutes, gently turn and cook the other side. They will be slightly browned. Put them on a paper towel lined baking sheet, sprinkle with a pinch of salt and hold in a warm oven.
• Topping: In a small bowl combine the sour cream and lime zest and set aside, set aside.
• In the same pan the spinach tostadas were cooked in, heat the remaining oil left in pan, over medium-high heat. When the oil is hot, add in the shallot and cook until translucent. Add in the tomatoes, potatoes and capers, stir to combine, add in the shrimp and stock and cook until shrimp turn pink. Stir in the pepper and the parsley and remove from the heat.
• Remove the spinach tostadas from the oven, and transfer to a serving platter. Equally portion the shrimp mixture on each tostada, sprinkle with feta, top with a small dollop of the sour cream mixture and serve immediately.

Steps:

• Place the red potatoes in a medium sized saucepan filled with enough water to cover by 1 inch. Place pan over high heat and bring to a boil and allow them to par-boil for 10 minutes until almost fork tender. Dip the potatoes out to the water and allow them to drain in a colander and set aside to cool. Take the spinach and place it in the boiling water that the potatoes cooked in and blanch the spinach for 3 minutes. Drain and squeeze out as much water as possible. Set aside and allow it to cool enough to handle.
• Prepare the green onions by cutting the tender green bottoms of one diagonally on the bias to make thin elongated rings to be used as garnish and the remaining two onions by mincing finely using both the white bottoms and green tops.
• Chop the blanched spinach finely and add it to the yogurt in a medium sized mixing bowl along with ½ package Hidden Valley Original Ranch Dips Mix, ¼ cup Parmesan Cheese, lemon juice and mix until well blended with an electric mixer for about 1 minute. Fold in the black pepper, lemon zest and minced green onions. Mix until evenly blended. Place this Spinach Mousse in the refrigerator until ready to plate the appetizers.
• Cut the slightly cooled potatoes into thick rounds about 1/3 inch thick and dip this in the melted butter and then roll them in a bowl holding a mixture of ¼ cup Parmesan Cheese and ½ cup bread crumbs. Place the potatoes slices on a hot griddle and brown on each side for about 5 minutes. Remove to a plated lined with a paper towel.
• Season the raw shrimp with the reserved 1 Tablespoon of the Hidden Valley Original Ranch Dip Mix and freshly ground black pepper (about 2 twist). Place the seasoned shrimp on the hot griddle and cook for 6 minutes turning over at 3 minutes. Shrimp should be cooked through and nice and pinkish red in color.
• Cut the grape tomatoes almost completely in half using a paring knife. Slip a slice of chive in the curve of each grilled shrimp.
• When ready to serve, remove the yogurt-spinach mixture from the refrigerator. Take the grilled potatoes and put them on a serving platter and top with a heaping round teaspoon full of the Spinach Mousse. Top with a opened grape tomato and then crown each stack with one grilled shrimp with a inserted chive garnish. Serve and Enjoy!

Steps:

• Heat oven to 190C/fan 170C/gas 5 and line a Swiss roll tin (23 x 32cm) with baking paper. Cook the spinach in the microwave according to pack instructions (about 2 mins for each bag), then, when cool enough to handle, squeeze out as much juice as you can. Tip the spinach into a food processor and add the egg yolks, 1 tbsp fromage frais, plenty of seasoning and the flour. Blend until really finely chopped and well mixed.
• Whisk the egg whites until stiff, then fold into the spinach mixture. Spread in the tin and bake for 12-15 mins until firm to the touch. 3 Meanwhile, beat the rest of the fromage frais into the garlic & herb cream cheese until creamy. Put a sheet of baking paper on the work surface and dust with a little of the vegetarian parmesan.
• Turn the spinach mixture onto the work surface and carefully strip off the paper. Spread with the cheese mixture and scatter over the tomato. Roll up from the shortest end using the paper to guide you. Serve straight away
