Brussels Sprout And Caramelized Shallot Gratin Recipes

Steps:

• INA'S CARAMELIZED SHALLOTS (~1 CUP):.
• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
• In a 12-inch ovenproof skillet, melt the butter over medium heat.
• Add the shallots and sugar, tossing to coat.
• Cook over medium heat for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally until the shallots start to brown.
• Add the vinegar, salt and pepper. Toss well.
• Place the skillet in the preheated oven and roast for 15-30 minutes, depending on the size of the shallots, until they are tender. (It pays to make the shallots the same size so they all finish at the same time.).
• If making ahead, refrigerate shallots up to 2 days before making the rest of the recipe. Allow to come to room temperature before adding to the Brussels sprouts.
• TOPPING:.
• In a bowl, stir together the bread crumbs, butter, lemon zest, salt, pepper and parsley.
• Set aside until Step 19.
• GRATIN:.
• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
• Grease a 12-inch ovenproof nonstick fry pan with the butter. Bring caramelized shallots to room temperature.
• Bring a large pot of water to a boil over high heat. Add the Brussels sprouts and cook until tender, 5-7 minutes. Drain, then transfer to a bowl of ice water. Drain and pat dry with paper towels.
• In a bowl, stir together the flour, Gruyere, Parmigiano-Reggiano, lemon zest, 2 teaspoons Kosher salt, and the pepper.
• Into the flour-cheese bowl, stir in the cream, then the Brussels sprouts and caramelized shallots.
• Transfer the mixture to the prepared fry pan and smooth the top.
• Sprinkle the bread crumb topping mixture evenly on top.
• Bake until the bread crumbs are golden brown, about 35 minutes.
• Let the gratin rest for 15 minutes before serving.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Put the shallots in a small baking dish, toss with 1 tablespoon canola oil and the sugar and season with salt and pepper. Roast, turning a few times, until golden brown and caramelized, 40 to 45 minutes. Let cool slightly, then thinly slice.
• Put the bacon in a large saute pan over medium heat and cook, stirring occasionally, until the fat has rendered and the bacon is golden brown and crisp, about 10 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon to a plate lined with paper towels.
• Pour off all but 1 tablespoon of the bacon fat, then add the remaining 2 tablespoons canola oil to the pan. Return to the stove over medium heat and heat until the oil begins to shimmer. Add the cabbage and Brussels sprouts, season with salt, pepper and the red pepper flakes, and cook until the vegetables are soft and light golden brown, about 15 minutes. Stir in the vinegar and the shallots. Transfer to a platter and top with the crisp bacon.

Steps:

• For the Caramelized Shallots: Warm the butter in a medium, heavy bottom saucepan over medium-low heat. Add sliced shallots and season with sugar, a pinch of salt and a few turns of freshly ground pepper. Cook shallots until caramelized (light brown and soft), stirring frequently. This should take 15 - 20 minutes. Reserve 1 cup of caramelized shallots for the gratin. Refrigerate any leftovers. For the Gratin & Topping: Preheat oven to 375. Grease a 9x13 baking dish. Set aside. Prepare an ice bath. Also set aside. Fill a large pot 3/4 of the way with water and bring to a boil over high heat. Once boiling add a handful of salt. Drop in the brussels sprouts and cook until just tender (about 5 minutes). Using slotted spoon, transfer to ice bath. Drain and gently dry with paper towels. In a large bowl, stir together the flour, Gruyere, Parmesan, lemon zest, 2 teaspoons of kosher salt and the freshly ground pepper. Add the cream, brussels sprouts and caramelized shallots, stirring to combine. Transfer the mixture to the prepared baking dish and smooth out the top. To make the topping, add bread crumbs, melted butter, lemon zest, salt, pepper and parsley to a medium bowl, stirring to combine. Sprinkle the topping evenly over the gratin. Bake until the bread crumbs are golden brown (30 - 35 minutes). Let the gratin rest for 10 - 15 minutes before serving.

Steps:

• Melt 3 tablespoons butter in medium skillet over medium heat.
• Add shallots; sprinkle with coarse kosher salt and pepper.
• Sauté until soft and golden, about 10 minutes.
• Add vinegar and sugar.
• Stir until brown and glazed, about 3 minutes.
• Halve brussels sprouts lengthwise.
• Cut lengthwise into thin (1/8-inch) slices. Heat oil in large skillet over medium-high heat.
• Add sprouts; sprinkle with salt and pepper. Sauté until brown at edges, 6 minutes.
• Add 1 cup water and 2 tablespoons oil. Sauté until most of water evaporates and sprouts are tender but still bright green, 3 minutes.
• Add shallots; season with salt and pepper.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 450 degrees. In a medium bowl, toss together brussels sprouts, shallots, olive oil and salt. Evenly divide brussels sprouts mixture between two rimmed 13-by-18-inch baking sheets, spreading everything into one layer. Top with thyme sprigs.
• Roast, stirring once, until brussels sprouts and shallots are tender, golden and lightly charred in spots, 20 to 25 minutes.
• Meanwhile, in a small bowl, mix together garlic, Worcestershire and lemon juice.
• As soon as brussels sprouts emerge from oven, immediately drizzle with Worcestershire dressing, tossing to combine. Taste and add more salt, lemon juice, or Worcestershire if needed. Top with grated Parmesan if you like and serve immediately.
