Root Vegetable Hash Recipes

Steps:

• Bring a medium pot of water to a boil, and generously season with salt. Add celery root, and simmer 3 minutes. Add potatoes and sweet potatoes, and simmer vegetables 2 minutes more. Drain well, and spread vegetables on a rimmed baking sheet. Let cool 15 minutes.
• Heat 2 tablespoons oil in a large (preferably cast-iron) skillet over medium-high heat, and cook onions until translucent and just beginning to color, about 2 minutes. Add remaining 2 tablespoons oil, the apples, and vegetables; season with salt and pepper. Stir to combine, then press into a single layer using a spatula. Cook, undisturbed, 2 minutes. Stir, and repeat process until vegetables are very tender and beginning to caramelize, 8 to 10 minutes more. Remove from heat. Stir in sage, and season with salt and pepper.

Steps:

• Heat the coconut oil in a large, heavy-bottom skillet over medium-high heat. When the oil is hot, add the root vegetables. Sauté, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking, for about 10 minutes. Next, add the onion, and continue sautéing until the vegetables are tender and have started to meld together. Sprinkle in the rosemary and salt to taste. Serve warm.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Heat 2 tablespoons vegetable oil in a large ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat. Season the chicken with 1 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper. Add to the skillet skin-side down and cook until golden, about 5 minutes. Pour off most of the fat from the skillet; transfer the skillet to the oven (do not flip the chicken). Roast 5 minutes, then flip the chicken and roast until cooked through, about 15 more minutes.
• Meanwhile, cook the bacon in the remaining 1 tablespoon oil in a large pot over medium-high heat until crisp, about 5 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels, reserving the drippings in the pot.
• Add the mushrooms, carrots, parsnips, turnips, red onion, 2 tablespoons water, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper to the pot. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are tender, about 12 minutes. Return the bacon to the pot along with the parsley and thyme. Serve the chicken with the vegetables.

Steps:

• For the horseradish cream, whisk the horseradish into the sour cream and season with salt and pepper, to taste.
• Heat 2 tablespoons of the butter in a large (10-inch) nonstick skillet over moderate heat. Add the onion and rosemary and cook, stirring occasionally until soft, about 10 minutes. Add the garlic to the onion and cook another minute.
• Meanwhile, with the shredding blade of a food processor, or with a box grater, grate the potatoes into a colander. Rinse and pat very dry. (Giving them a turn in a salad spinner helps, too.)
• Stir the potatoes into the vegetables in the skillet. Cook the potatoes, undisturbed until they get crusty on the bottom. Then, stir the crispy bottom into the tender potato, and continue to cook to re-crisp the bottom. Continue this browning and periodic stirring until the potatoes are almost cooked through, about 8 minutes. Meanwhile, shred the carrot and beet.
• Remove the rosemary sprigs. Stir the carrot and beets into the potato hash, and cook until slightly soft, about 5 minutes. Press the hash into an even cake. Add the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter in bits along the sides of the skillet, and then brown the hash over high heat. Turn the hash in large sections with a spatula to brown the other sides, another minute.
• Divide the vegetable hash among 4 plates and serve warm with the horseradish cream.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 475 degrees. Wrap beets in aluminum foil. Bake until a knife easily pierces beets, about 45 minutes. Let cool 1 hour. Meanwhile, toss apples with lemon juice.
• Bring a large stockpot of salted water to a boil. Meanwhile, prepare an ice-water bath. Blanch potato for 1 minute, and transfer to ice-water bath to stop cooking. Remove potato from bath; drain in colander. Repeat process for celery root and squash, blanching each for 2 minutes.
• In a heavy skillet over medium-high heat, melt butter until bubbling. Add onion, and cook until softened, about 2 minutes. Add celery root, and cook 2 minutes. Add potato; cook 1 minute. Add beets and apples; cook, stirring, until all ingredients are tender, about 3 minutes. Season to taste.
• Remove from heat; sprinkle with parsley. Serve.

Steps:

• In saucepan over medium-high heat, heat oil, add and stir bacon 2-3 minutes, until it begins to render; then add and stir onion 2-3 minutes, until onion starts to soften.
• Add root vegetables and stir together.
• Add chicken broth; salt and pepper to taste.
• Cover and bring to boil, then reduce heat to medium or lower to maintain a low boil 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until vegetables are fork-tender.
• Remove cover and increase heat to medium-high to bring to a rapid boil. Cook 5-6 minutes, stirring frequently, until broth has evaporated.
• Remove from heat and stir in nutmeg and half the chives. Taste and adjust seasoning. Top with remaining chives and serve hot.
