Spinach Carrot Loaf Recipes

Steps:

• Melt 2 ounces of the butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the carrots and sauté slowly until tender, about 25 minutes. Chop coarsely and place in a bowl.
• Increase heat to high and melt 1 ounce of the butter in the same skillet. Add the mushrooms and sauté for 2 minutes. Chop coarsely and add to carrots. Set aside.
• Melt 2 ounces butter over medium-high heat in the same skillet, add the spinach and sauté until wilted, about 2 minutes. Chop coarsely, place in a separate bowl and set aside.
• Line an 8 1/2-by-4 1/2-by-2 1/2-inch loaf pan with aluminum foil. Butter foil with the remaining butter. Beat together 4 eggs, the cheese, salt and pepper in a medium bowl, add to the carrot mixture and mix well. Add the remaining eggs to the spinach and mix well. Spread half the carrot mixture over the bottom of the pan, cover with the spinach mixture and top with the remaining carrot mixture. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate.
• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Remove the plastic wrap, cover the loaf pan loosely with foil and place in a roasting pan. Add enough boiling water to come halfway up the sides of the loaf pan. Bake 1 hour or until a knife plunged in the center comes out clean. Uncover, invert the loaf onto a serving platter and remove foil. Slice and serve immediately.

Steps:

• Begin heating a large heavy skillet over medium-high heat. Heat the oven to 300 degrees and line a sheet pan with parchment. Place a rack over another sheet pan.
• In a large bowl mix together the carrots, spinach, baking powder, salt, nigella seeds, chili powder, oat bran and matzo meal or flour. Taste and adjust salt. Add the eggs and stir together. If the mixture seems dry add a little more egg.
• Pack about 3 tablespoons of the mixture into a 1/4 cup measuring cup. Reverse onto the parchment-lined baking sheet. Repeat with the remaining latke mix. You should have enough to make 15 or 16 latkes.
• Add the oil to the pan and when it is hot (hold your hand a few inches above - you should feel the heat), use a spatula to transfer one portion of the latke mixture to the pan. Press down with the spatula to flatten. Repeat with more mounds. In my 10-inch pan I can cook three or four at a time without crowding; my 12-inch pan will accommodate four or five. Cook on one side until golden brown, about three minutes. Slide the spatula underneath and flip the latkes over. Cook on the other side until golden brown, another two to three minutes. Transfer to the rack set over a baking sheet and place in the oven to keep warm.
• Serve hot topped with low-fat sour cream, Greek yogurt or crème fraîche, or with other toppings of your choice such as chutney or raita.

Cover, reduce heat to low, and simmer for 5 minutes.

• Heat the butter in a large, high-sided skillet over medium-high heat. Add the onion, 1 teaspoon of the salt and 1/2 teaspoon of the pepper and cook until soft, about 6 minutes. In batches, add the spinach and cook until wilted, about 15 minutes. Drain in a colander. Press gently on top of the spinach to release excess moisture. Set aside to cool slightly. Transfer the spinach mixture to a food processor and blend until smooth. Pour the spinach into the bowl with the bread mixture. Add 3/4 cup of the Parmesan, the remaining salt and pepper and the nutmeg. Stir until smooth.
• Spread half of the mixture on the bottom of the prepared pan. Lay the hard boiled eggs, end-to-end, in a line along the center of the spinach mixture. Add the remaining spinach mixture on top and press gently. Sprinkle the remaining Parmesan on top and bake for 1 hour. Cool 15 minutes, then run a thin metal spatula around the edges of the pan to release the loaf. Invert the loaf onto a cutting board, remove the parchment paper, and cut into slices.
