Beet And Red Onion Potato Latkes With Carrot Puree And Horseradish And Caraway Creme Fraiche Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 250 degrees F.
• Grate the potatoes and carrots on the large holes of a box grater and transfer to a large colander set over a bowl. Grate the onion and add to the colander. Sprinkle with 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Firmly squeeze the mixture with your hands to extract as much liquid as possible; blot dry on paper towels if especially wet. Transfer the mixture to a large bowl. Mix in the beets and parsley. Add the flour and egg and stir until thoroughly combined.
• Line a baking sheet with paper towels. Working with 1/4 cup of the mixture at a time, form tightly packed pancakes 3 to 4 inches wide and transfer to the prepared baking sheet.
• Heat 1/4 inch of vegetable oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat until shimmering. Working in batches, fry the pancakes until golden brown and crisp, 4 to 5 minutes per side. Transfer to a baking sheet and put in the oven while cooking the remaining pancakes.
• Serve with sour cream.

Steps:

• In a small bowl, stir together potato starch, baking powder, 1 1/2 teaspoons salt, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper; set aside. Peel potatoes; place in a bowl of cold water. On the large holes of a box grater, grate potatoes, onion, and beets. Transfer to a fine sieve lined with cheesecloth and set over a large bowl.
• Gather mixture in cheesecloth and squeeze moisture out into bowl. Let stand until a white paste settles to bottom of bowl, about 2 minutes. Remove sieve; pour liquid out of bowl and discard, leaving behind white paste.
• Add potato mixture to bowl and sprinkle with baking-powder mixture; toss to coat. Add eggs; stir to combine.
• Heat 1/4 inch oil in a large, heavy skillet (preferably cast iron) over medium-high until hot but not smoking. (Test with a shred of potato; if it sizzles immediately, it's ready). Reduce heat to medium. Working in batches to avoid crowding, scoop a scant 1/4 cup of potato mixture into oil; flatten with a spatula to 1/4 inch thick. Fry, turning once, until golden brown and crisp, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Using a slotted spatula, transfer to paper towels set over a baking sheet. Sprinkle with flaky salt. Repeat, stirring potato mixture between batches, and adjusting heat as needed while frying. Serve immediately, topped with creme fraiche, trout, chives, and pepper.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 250 degrees F. Set a wire rack on a rimmed baking sheet. Peel and rinse the potatoes, then grate on the large holes of a box grater into a colander set over a large bowl. Grate the onion into the colander; season with 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Squeeze the potato mixture with your hands to remove as much liquid as possible, transferring the mixture to a paper towel-lined plate as you go. Wipe out the bowl. Blot the potato mixture dry with paper towels and return to the dry bowl.
• Peel the beet and grate on the large holes of the box grater; add to the bowl with the potato mixture. Add the egg, matzo meal and parsley and stir to combine. Scoop tablespoonfuls of the potato mixture and tightly pack into 1-inch pancakes (about 24); transfer to a large plate.
• Heat 1/4 inch schmaltz or vegetable oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Working in batches, add the pancakes and fry until browned and crisp, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Transfer to the prepared baking sheet; sprinkle with salt and keep warm in the oven (or serve at room temperature). Top as desired.

Steps:

• Put the carrots and onion in a medium bowl. Drizzle the olive oil and lemon juice over the vegetables. Season with salt and a pinch of red pepper flakes. Toss well to coat with the dressing. Add the cilantro and toss just to combine. Serve immediately or refrigerate in an airtight container for up to 3 days.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Wrap beets in parchment-lined foil and bake until tender when pierced with the tip of a knife, about 1 hour. Let stand until cool enough to handle. Using a paper towel, rub off skins. Cut beets into 1-inch wedges.
• Combine vinegar, 1/4 cup water, sugar, celery seed, peppercorns, coriander, turmeric, and 1 tablespoon salt in a medium saucepan. Bring to a boil. Add beets and onion; return to a simmer, then transfer to a clean jar and let cool to room temperature. Seal and refrigerate at least 1 day and up to 2 months.

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, combine onion, lemon juice, and eggs. Add flour, salt, and pepper, and stir until incorporated. Add carrots, beets, and potato, and toss until combined and evenly coated.
• Fill a large skillet with about 1/2 inch oil. Place over medium heat until oil is almost smoking. (To test, drop a small bit of batter into the skillet; it should sizzle upon contact.)
• Working in batches so as not to crowd skillet, carefully spoon about 2 tablespoons batter into oil for each latke. Lightly tamp down to flatten. Cook, turning once, until golden on each side, 2 to 3 minutes. Using a slotted spatula, transfer to a paper-towel-lined wire rack to drain. Repeat with remaining batter. Serve immediately with sour cream and applesauce.

Steps:

• Dice onion into 1 x 1 cm chunks.
• Cut the leafy tops off the beetroot, leaving about 2-3 inches (to stop the colour from running.) Place beetroot in a saucepan and cover them with cold water. Bring the water to the boil and then boil until cooked. This should take about 20 minutes, a knife should slide easily into them when beetroot are cooked. This is a good time to make the dressing!
• Drain the hot water out when beetroot is ready and refill the saucepan with cold water. This make peeling beetroot a lot easier. Peel the beetroot, remove the ends, and cut into quarters.
• Place the cut beetroot into a baking dish, crumble the onion over the top, and pour the dressing over the beetroot and onion, making sure that everything is well coated.
• Bake in a moderate oven for about 15 minutes or until the onion cooked.
• To make dressing~.
• Get a glass or shaker and put in the balsamic, olive oil and brown sugar and shake or stir until well combined.
• Do a taste test - if it tastes fine set aside. (Dressing should be a good mix of sweet and tart - if too tart add a little more olive oil, and if too oily add more balsamic.).
