Leek Squash And Tomato Gratin Recipes

Steps:

• Peel and seed half the tomatoes, and chop fine. Slice the rest and set aside. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Oil a 2-quart gratin or baking dish.
• Heat 1 tablespoon of the olive oil in a large, heavy nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and cook, stirring often, until it is translucent, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic, stir together for about 30 seconds, until it begins to smell fragrant, and stir in the squash. Cook, stirring often, until the squash is translucent, about 5 minutes. Add the chopped tomatoes and the thyme, season with salt and pepper, raise the heat slightly and cook, stirring often, until the tomatoes have cooked down and smell fragrant, 10 to 15 minutes. Stir in the rice or other grains and remove from the heat.
• Beat the eggs in a large bowl. Stir in the cooked vegetables, salt and pepper to taste, and the cheese and combine well. Scrape into the gratin dish.
• Slice the remaining tomatoes and cover the top of the gratin in one layer. Drizzle on the remaining tablespoon of olive oil. Bake 45 minutes, or until the top is browned and the gratin is sizzling. Remove from the heat and allow to sit for at least 10 minutes before serving. Sprinkle the basil over the top. Serve hot, warm or at room temperature.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 190C / 375°F.
• Steam squash for 10 minutes.
• Heat half the oil and cook leeks for 5 minutes
• In an ovenproof dish layer squash, leeks and tomatoes in rows. Season if desired and add cumin.
• Heat cream with garlic and chilli. Bring to boil, stir in mint and add to veg.
• Bake for 55 minutes.
• Sprinkle on breadcrumbs and drizzle the rest of the oil over the top. Bake for another 15 - 20 mins until the breadcrumbs are brown.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Lightly grease a 3-quart casserole dish.
• Heat 2 tablespoons oil in a large, nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add leeks and onion to the hot skillet and saute for 10 minutes. Add mushrooms and continue to saute until leeks and onion are tender, 6 to 8 more minutes.
• Meanwhile, cut zucchini, yellow squash, and Roma tomatoes into 1/4-inch slices.
• Transfer mushroom mixture to the prepared casserole dish and spread evenly over the bottom. Layer zucchini, yellow squash, and tomatoes on top of the onion mixture.
• Combine bread crumbs, Parmesan cheese, parsley, cashews, tarragon, salt, and pepper in a large mixing bowl. Sprinkle over the vegetables to cover.
• Bake in the preheated oven until gratin is dark brown all over, about 1 hour.

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 350. Trim the leeks of the hard green parts and outer skin, and wash them well. If they're fat, quarter them the long way. Chop the tomatoes and put them in a gratin dish long enough to hold the leeks but narrow enough so that everything is snug. Add the oil and nestle the leeks in there; sprinkle with salt and pepper.
• Bake, checking and stirring occasionally, until the tomatoes become saucy and the leeks are very, very tender, about an hour. If you like, sprinkle with Parmesan and raise the heat until the cheese melts and browns a bit. Otherwise, sprinkle with chopped parsley and serve hot or warm.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400F degrees.
• Spray an oven proof gratin dish with veggie spray.
• Cover bottom of dish with half the leek slices and layer half the tomato slices over to cover.
• Sprinkle with salt and pepper to taste.
• Sprinkle half the olive oil over all.
• Make a second layer, ending with the tomato slices, salt and pepper and olive oil.
• Top with Jalapeno and sprinkle with shredded cheddar cheese.
• Bake, uncovered,in 400F oven for 30 minutes.
