Steps:

• Scrub the sunchokes and slice into 1/4 thick slices.
• In a 13-inch-x-9-inch a baking dish, add melted butter.
• Arrange the sliced chokes in casserole so that they overlap slightly.
• Sprinkle with salt, black pepper and garlic powder.
• If Using: Mix together onions & green onions; sprinkle over chokes.

• Bake in a preheated 400 degree oven for about 18 to 20 minutes or until light golden crust begins to form on top.
• Remove from from oven, cover with release foil and let set for about 5 minutes before serving.
• The Jerusalem Artichokes should be slightly crunchy.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 375 degrees. Scrub Jerusalem artichokes, and slice 1/4 inch thick. Bring milk and 1 cup water to a boil. Reduce to a simmer, add slices, and cook until tender but crisp, 8 minutes. Drain, and arrange in a buttered baking dish.
• In a small saucepan, bring cream, garlic, nutmeg, salt and pepper to a boil. Remove garlic, and pour mixture evenly over artichokes. Sprinkle with cheese. Bake in upper level of oven until bubbling and lightly browned, about 20 minutes.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Place the spinach in a large colander in a sink and carefully and slowly pour over a kettleful of hot water to wilt it. Cool again under the cold tap then squeeze out as much liquid from the spinach as possible. Butter a medium gratin dish. Roughly chop the spinach and scatter evenly over the base of the dish. Season the spinach lightly with salt and pepper and lay the haddock fillets, skinned side down on top. Nestle the tomatoes among the haddock fillets.
• Mix all the ingredients for the topping, except the breadcrumbs, in a small bowl and season with lots of pepper and a little salt. Dollop and spread the mixture over the fish and spinach. Scatter everything with the breadcrumbs and bake for 30 mins until bubbling and golden. If you like things really grilled finish for a few mins under a hot grill. Serve straight from the dish.

Steps:

• Peel Jerusalem artichokes and cut into 1-inch pieces. In a stainless-steel or enameled saucepan combine artichokes, milk, and enough water to cover artichokes by 1 inch and simmer until tender, about 30 minutes. (Milk will help prevent artichokes from discoloring.) While artichokes are cooking, in a large skillet heat 2 tablespoons butter over moderately high heat until foam subsides and sauté onion, garlic, and 1 tablespoon sage until onion is golden, about minutes.
• Preheat oven to 425° F.
• Drain artichokes and in a food processor pulse with onion mixture and Parmesan until smooth. Spoon purée into a 2-quart buttered gratin dish. In large skillet melt remaining 3 tablespoons butter over moderate heat and sauté bread crumbs with remaining 2 tablespoons sage until golden, about 5 minutes. Season bread crumbs with salt and pepper and sprinkle evenly over purée. Gratin may be prepared up to this point 2 days ahead and chilled covered.
• Bake gratin in middle of oven until hot and bread crumbs are a shade darker, about 20 minutes, and garnish with fried sage leaves.
• To make fried sage leaves:
• In a small skillet heat 1/8 inch oil over moderately high heat until hot but not smoking and fry sage leaves, 1 at a time, about 3 seconds, until crisp, transferring with a slotted spoon to paper towels to drain. Sprinkle sage leaves with coarse salt.
