Herbed Potatoes And Squash Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375°F. Butter two 8-inch-diameter cake pans. Set aside 1/4 cup sliced green onions. Toss remaining green onions, cheese, flour, thyme, salt and pepper in medium bowl to blend.
• Layer 1/6 of potatoes in concentric circles in bottom of 1 prepared pan, overlapping slightly. Layer 1/4 of squash in concentric circles atop potatoes. Drizzle with 1 teaspoon oil. Sprinkle with 1/6 of cheese mixture. Repeat with 1/6 of potatoes, then 1/4 of squash and 1 teaspoon oil. Sprinkle with 1/6 of cheese mixture. Top with 1/6 of potatoes. Drizzle with 1 teaspoon oil. Sprinkle with 1/6 of cheese mixture and press gently to flatten. Repeat procedure with second cake pan and remaining potatoes, squash, oil, and cheese mixture.
• Cover pans with foil. Bake until potatoes are almost tender, about 40 minutes. Remove foil; bake uncovered until tortes begin to brown and potatoes are tender, about 25 minutes longer. (Can be made 6 hours ahead. Cool. Cover with foil and chill. Rewarm, covered with foil, in 350°F oven until heated through, about 30 minutes.)
• Cut each torte into wedges. Sprinkle wedges with 1/4 cup green onions; serve.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425F.
• Cover the bottom of a large baking sheet with aluminum foil.
• Place the potatoes and squash in a large bowl and toss with olive oil, rosemary, thyme, oregano, garlic, balsamico and salt and pepper to coat well.
• Transfer vegetables to large baking sheet and spread into a single layer, keeping any leftover oil from the bowl.
• Roast the vegetables until tender, turning every 15 minutes with a long-handled spoon, about 45 minutes to 55 minutes.
• The veggies should be tender on the inside and caramelized in places on the outside.
• Adjust seasoning to taste.
• Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Cook the new potatoes (with their skins on) in boiling salted water for 15-20 minutes depending on their size. They should be quite soft for this recipe.
• Meanwhile warm the oil and herbs in a small pan - this helps release all the flavours. Drain the potatoes, tip them into a bowl and 'squash' each potato with a fork - it should break up but not fall apart. Be gentle here, as you don't want the potatoes completely collapsing. Pour over the herb oil, gently stir, tip into a serving dish, then sprinkle over a good pinch of Maldon sea salt and plenty of freshly ground black pepper.

Steps:

• In a bowl stir together oil, rosemary, and 1/2 teaspoons salt. Add potatoes and toss.
• Preheat grill to medium-hot, and place grilling basket or grid on grill for 5 minutes to heat up. Add the potatoes; cover and grill 10 minutes, stirring once. Add squash; cover and grill 15 minutes more, until potatoes are tender, stirring once.
• Transfer to a serving dish. Sprinkle with remaining fresh rosemary or with dill.
